Hi
I was stupid enough to make -E use a colon separator between the file name
and the password, like 'curl -E cert.pem:secret [URL]'.
Now, if the certificate file name has a colon, curl gets confused. This is
generally what happens when win32 people using an absolute path including
drive letters, like 'c:\blabla'...
Anyone with a good idea on how to address this? I feel bad about breaking
compatibility with the existing curl -E usage, but I want to support colons
properly...
This is a plain client problem, as libcurl gets the file name and password in
separate options.
