  7. This option tells the --remote-name option to use the server-specified
  8. Content-Disposition filename instead of extracting a filename from the URL.
  9. If the server specifies a file name and a file with that name already exists
  10. in the current working directory it will not be overwritten and an error will
  11. occur. If the server doesn't specify a file name then this option has no
  12. effect.
  13. There's no attempt to decode %-sequences (yet) in the provided file name, so
  14. this option may provide you with rather unexpected file names.
  15. \fBWARNING\fP: Exercise judicious use of this option, especially on Windows. A
  16. rogue server could send you the name of a DLL or other file that could possibly
  17. be loaded automatically by Windows or some third party software.
