-.B CURLOPT_PASSWDFUNCTION
-Pass a pointer to a \fIcurl_passwd_callback\fP function that will be called
-instead of the internal one if libcurl requests a password. The function must
-match this prototype: \fBint getpass(void *client, char *prompt, char* buffer,
-int buflen );\fP.  If set to NULL, it sets back the function to the internal
-default one. If the function returns a non-zero value, it will abort the
-operation and an error (CURLE_BAD_PASSWORD_ENTERED) will be returned.
-\fIclient\fP is a generic pointer, see \fICURLOPT_PASSWDDATA\fP.  \fIprompt\fP
-is a zero-terminated string that is text that prefixes the input request.
-\fIbuffer\fP is a pointer to data where the entered password should be stored
-and \fIbuflen\fP is the maximum number of bytes that may be written in the
-buffer.
