1.1     ! misho       1: Long: data-binary
        !             2: Arg: <data>
        !             3: Help: HTTP POST binary data
        !             4: Protocols: HTTP
        !             5: ---
        !             6: This posts data exactly as specified with no extra processing whatsoever.
        !             7: 
        !             8: If you start the data with the letter @, the rest should be a filename.  Data
        !             9: is posted in a similar manner as --data does, except that newlines and
        !            10: carriage returns are preserved and conversions are never done.
        !            11: 
        !            12: Like --data the default content-type sent to the server is
        !            13: application/x-www-form-urlencoded. If you want the data to be treated as
        !            14: arbitrary binary data by the server then set the content-type to octet-stream:
        !            15: -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream".
        !            16: 
        !            17: If this option is used several times, the ones following the first will append
        !            18: data as described in --data.
