1.1       misho       1: Long: dump-header
                      2: Short: D
                      3: Arg: <filename>
                      4: Help: Write the received headers to <filename>
                      5: Protocols: HTTP FTP
                      6: See-also: output
                      7: ---
                      8: Write the received protocol headers to the specified file.
                      9: 
                     10: This option is handy to use when you want to store the headers that an HTTP
                     11: site sends to you. Cookies from the headers could then be read in a second
                     12: curl invocation by using the --cookie option! The --cookie-jar option is a
                     13: better way to store cookies.
                     14: 
                     15: If no headers are received, the use of this option will create an empty file.
                     16: 
                     17: When used in FTP, the FTP server response lines are considered being "headers"
                     18: and thus are saved there.
                     19: 
                     20: If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
