| 3 | Help: Write output to a file named as the remote file |
| 4 | --- |
| 5 | Write output to a local file named like the remote file we get. (Only the file |
| 6 | part of the remote file is used, the path is cut off.) |
| 7 | |
| 8 | The file will be saved in the current working directory. If you want the file |
| 9 | saved in a different directory, make sure you change the current working |
| 10 | directory before invoking curl with this option. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | The remote file name to use for saving is extracted from the given URL, |
| 13 | nothing else, and if it already exists it will be overwritten. If you want the |
| 14 | server to be able to choose the file name refer to --remote-header-name which |
| 15 | can be used in addition to this option. If the server chooses a file name and |
| 16 | that name already exists it will not be overwritten. |
| 17 | |
| 18 | There is no URL decoding done on the file name. If it has %20 or other URL |
| 19 | encoded parts of the name, they will end up as-is as file name. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | You may use this option as many times as the number of URLs you have. |
