| 4 | Help: Use the header-provided filename |
| 5 | --- |
| 6 | This option tells the --remote-name option to use the server-specified |
| 7 | Content-Disposition filename instead of extracting a filename from the URL. |
| 8 | |
| 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 | |
| 14 | There's no attempt to decode %-sequences (yet) in the provided file name, so |
| 15 | this option may provide you with rather unexpected file names. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | \fBWARNING\fP: Exercise judicious use of this option, especially on Windows. A |
| 18 | rogue server could send you the name of a DLL or other file that could possibly |
| 19 | be loaded automatically by Windows or some third party software. |
