RE: --curves parameter ?

Hi Daniel,

   Thanks for the quick answer(s). The google-search also didn't turn out another response than "not yet implemented".

As I only started to look into the curl source code today (though being a longtime happy curl user), I'm certain I didn't understand all internal structures and concepts already to do a regular PR -- however, I put together a patch that someone truly knowledgeable may want to take a look at (attached):

Applied to 7.69.1. it does what I've been asking for, though and I'd apply it as such to our "downstream project" (OpenQuantumSafe) where we're adding quantum-safe cryptographic capabilities to curl (https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/oqs-demos/tree/master/curl)

So, I'd be glad if you'd find the time to take a look and let me know whether something like this could be added to curl so that we wouldn't need to apply it manually whenever we build our project (and need to redo when the curl code moves on...):

Thanks in advance,

--Michael

    No, there isn't! Room for improvement I guess.

    I can't recall any such either.

    Uh, that search thing at the bottom of the screen seems to have broken
    completely! I'll see what I can do to get it back, but I can't tell you
    exactly when its going to happen.

    The general trick is otherwise to add "site:https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__curl.haxx.se_mail&d=DwIDaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=P7u4k_NTA-MMBziH70VhanW--FgaLtu5uNHkMS36osY&m=lUulNuw4Y7xr18piRIO2w5nlC0R8JMlaNv6zM0HyfeA&s=Bs5i7l4I4TzqL5mx_Tb4bkmIDrTuIhEHmwUpEkXMggE&e= " to your
    google search field to only get results from the curl mailing list archives.
