Public bug reported:
Using --styled-output (which is the default running cURL interactive
terminal) results in the double-underline text attribute being set
incorrectly and remaining on after cURL exits.
For example, running this in xfce4-terminal:
curl -I google.com
Results in double-underlined text starting from the ":" after
"Location", and running into the shell prompt after cURL has exited.
The intended behaviour of this feature is HTTP header names to be bold,
and header values to be normal.
While I noticed the problem in xfce4-terminal on Xubuntu, others have
reported the issue on other terminal emulators, so I don't think this is
specific to xfce4-terminal.
Man page for --styled-output doesn't mention setting double underline either:
Enables the automatic use of bold font styles when writing HTTP headers to
the terminal. Use --no-styled-output to switch them off.
Added in 7.61.0.
This has already been fixed upstream by using the correct font attribute
control code.
