patch to print version info on stderr
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2003 12:19:32 -0700
Please consider this patch to print version info on stderr, and to make it
possible to redirect this to a file. I'm working in Windows land and it's a
bit of struggle to deal with redirecting output, etc. without this. With
this patch
$ curl --stderr foo --version
will now put the version info in foo.
Note that
$ curl --version --stderr foo
will not.
main.c is patched against 1.197. If it's more likely to make it as a patch
against 1.198 please let me know and I'll do it. runtests.pl is a patch
against 1.91. Same question here as it's not the current rev. With these
patches, all the tests that previously passed still pass for me.
I think this patch also paves the way for reporting command line errors on a
redirected stderr instead of stderr itself which would also be useful for
me. If other folks are interested in this, it will happen faster.
Thanks much.
