  7. This posts data exactly as specified with no extra processing whatsoever.
  8. If you start the data with the letter @, the rest should be a filename. Data
  9. is posted in a similar manner as --data does, except that newlines and
  10. carriage returns are preserved and conversions are never done.
  11. Like --data the default content-type sent to the server is
  12. application/x-www-form-urlencoded. If you want the data to be treated as
  13. arbitrary binary data by the server then set the content-type to octet-stream:
  14. -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream".
  15. If this option is used several times, the ones following the first will append
  16. data as described in --data.
