        !             2: Arg: <data>
        !             3: Help: HTTP POST data url encoded
        !             4: Protocols: HTTP
        !             5: See-also: data data-raw
        !             6: Added: 7.18.0
        !             7: ---
        !             8: This posts data, similar to the other --data options with the exception
        !             9: that this performs URL-encoding.
        !            10: 
        !            11: To be CGI-compliant, the <data> part should begin with a \fIname\fP followed
        !            12: by a separator and a content specification. The <data> part can be passed to
        !            13: curl using one of the following syntaxes:
        !            14: .RS
        !            15: .IP "content"
        !            16: This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. Just be careful
        !            17: so that the content doesn't contain any = or @ symbols, as that will then make
        !            18: the syntax match one of the other cases below!
        !            19: .IP "=content"
        !            20: This will make curl URL-encode the content and pass that on. The preceding =
        !            21: symbol is not included in the data.
        !            22: .IP "name=content"
        !            23: This will make curl URL-encode the content part and pass that on. Note that
        !            24: the name part is expected to be URL-encoded already.
        !            25: .IP "@filename"
        !            26: This will make curl load data from the given file (including any newlines),
        !            27: URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST.
        !            28: .IP "name@filename"

        !            30: URL-encode that data and pass it on in the POST. The name part gets an equal
        !            31: sign appended, resulting in \fIname=urlencoded-file-content\fP. Note that the
