| 14 | Specify the User-Agent string to send to the HTTP server. To encode blanks in |
| 15 | the string, surround the string with single quote marks. This header can also |
| 16 | be set with the --header or the --proxy-header options. |

| 18 | If you give an empty argument to --user-agent (""), it will remove the header |
| 19 | completely from the request. If you prefer a blank header, you can set it to a |
