| Long: referer | 
 | Short: e | 
 | Arg: <URL> | 
 | Protocols: HTTP | 
 | Help: Referrer URL | 
 | See-also: user-agent header | 
 | --- | 
 | Sends the "Referrer Page" information to the HTTP server. This can also be set | 
 | with the --header flag of course.  When used with --location you can append | 
 | ";auto" to the --referer URL to make curl automatically set the previous URL | 
 | when it follows a Location: header. The \&";auto" string can be used alone, | 
 | even if you don't set an initial --referer. | 
 |  | 
 | If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. |
