| Help: URL to work with |
| --- |
| Specify a URL to fetch. This option is mostly handy when you want to specify |
| URL(s) in a config file. |
| |
| If the given URL is missing a scheme name (such as "http://" or "ftp://" etc) |
| then curl will make a guess based on the host. If the outermost sub-domain |
| name matches DICT, FTP, IMAP, LDAP, POP3 or SMTP then that protocol will be |
| used, otherwise HTTP will be used. Since 7.45.0 guessing can be disabled by |
| setting a default protocol, see --proto-default for details. |
| |
| This option may be used any number of times. To control where this URL is |
| written, use the --output or the --remote-name options. |
