[curl:bugs] #1297 -u : --negotiate do not work when -K is used

Ah, thanks for the language remark.

We're talking about the actual ASCII code for minus so I'm not too happy with calling it hyphen since I think it could imply something else. If a single minus is a hyphen when it starts an option, what do you call two initial minuses? double-hyphen?

It made me ask around, and at least to British persons insisted they normally use minus and minusminus when referring to the - or -- letters in command line options...

I tried to see what other man pages call them, but I didn't find any really good source.

The wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface uses the terms "hyphen-minus" and "double hyphen-minuses" which are awkwardly long and complicated methinks.

I do use:
curl 7.33.0 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.33.0 OpenSSL/1.0.0 zlib/1.2.3
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtsp smtp smtps telnet tftp
Features: GSS-Negotiate IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz
Invoking a URL with:
$ curl -i -L -o /dev/null -k --negotiate -u : $URL
works as expected. Negotiate auth is performed. When I transform this to a param file and pass with -K
$  curl -K params.txt
Warning: params.txt:6: warning: '-u' requires parameter
Interestingly, if I set -u foo:bar in the param file, the download works as expected.
The -u in the params file should behave same as in the first example.
