- This posts data, similar to the other --data options with the exception
- that this performs URL-encoding.
- To be CGI-compliant, the <data> part should begin with a \fIname\fP followed
- by a separator and a content specification. The <data> part can be passed to
- curl using one of the following syntaxes:
- .RS
- .IP "content"
- This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. Just be careful
- so that the content doesn't contain any = or @ symbols, as that will then make
- the syntax match one of the other cases below!
- .IP "=content"
- This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. The preceding =
- symbol is not included in the data.
- .IP "name=content"
- This will make curl URL-encode the content part and pass that on. Note that
- the name part is expected to be URL-encoded already.
- .IP "@filename"
- This will make curl load data from the given file (including any newlines),
- URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST.
- .IP "name@filename"
- This will make curl load data from the given file (including any newlines),
- URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST. The name part gets an equal
- sign appended, resulting in \fIname=urlencoded-file-content\fP. Note that the
- name is expected to be URL-encoded already.
