I use TOR as a proxy. TOR actually refuses to establish connection to localhost, so I set NO_PROXY

NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.1,::1

It enables connections to http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1 and does not work for http://[::1] at all.
Apparently the problem is caused by an assumption that a hostname cannot contain a colon.

Yes, seems like an accurate observation. Time to add a test case with an IPv6 numerical for this too...

It'd be great if you can just verify my patch in #2355. I'll try to add a test case for it before I merge anyway.

Docs is good indeed. But no, the brackets are not used in the NO_PROXY list. They are however mandatory in the URL itself.

Works for me (-: Thanks.

How about updating docs/curl.1 too?
