+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These are all functions that produce output according to a format string and
+given arguments. These are mostly clones of the well-known C-style functions
+and there will be no detailed explanation of all available formatting rules
+and usage here.
+
+See this table for notable exceptions.
+.RS
+.TP
+.B curl_mprintf()
+Normal printf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mfprintf()
+Normal fprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_msprintf()
+Normal sprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_msnprintf()
+snprintf() clone. Many systems don't have this. It is just like \fBsprintf\fP
+but with an extra argument after the buffer that specifies the length of the
+target buffer.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvprintf()
+Normal vprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvfprintf()
+Normal vfprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvsprintf()
+Normal vsprintf() clone.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvsnprintf()
+vsnprintf() clone. Many systems don't have this. It is just like
+\fBvsprintf\fP but with an extra argument after the buffer that specifies the
+length of the target buffer.
+.TP
+.B curl_maprintf()
+Like printf() but returns the output string as a malloc()ed string. The
+returned string must be free()ed by the receiver.
+.TP
+.B curl_mvaprintf()
+Like curl_maprintf() but takes a va_list pointer argument instead of a
+variable amount of arguments.
+.RE
+
+To easily use all these cloned functions instead of the normal ones, #define
+_MPRINTF_REPLACE before you include the <curl/mprintf.h> file. Then all the
+normal names like printf, fprintf, sprintf etc will use the curl-functions
+instead.
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+These function will be removed from the public libcurl API in a near
+future. They will instead be made "available" by source code access only, and
+then as curlx_-prefixed functions. See lib/README.curlx for further details.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The \fBcurl_maprintf\fP and \fBcurl_mvaprintf\fP functions return a pointer to
+a newly allocated string, or NULL if it failed.
+
+All other functions return the number of characters they actually outputted.
