1.1     ! misho       1: Long: upload-file
        !             2: Short: T
        !             3: Arg: <file>
        !             4: Help: Transfer local FILE to destination
        !             5: ---
        !             6: This transfers the specified local file to the remote URL. If there is no file
        !             7: part in the specified URL, curl will append the local file name. NOTE that you
        !             8: must use a trailing / on the last directory to really prove to Curl that there
        !             9: is no file name or curl will think that your last directory name is the remote
        !            10: file name to use. That will most likely cause the upload operation to fail. If
        !            11: this is used on an HTTP(S) server, the PUT command will be used.
        !            12: 
        !            13: Use the file name "-" (a single dash) to use stdin instead of a given file.
        !            14: Alternately, the file name "." (a single period) may be specified instead
        !            15: of "-" to use stdin in non-blocking mode to allow reading server output
        !            16: while stdin is being uploaded.
        !            17: 
        !            18: You can specify one --upload-file for each URL on the command line. Each
        !            19: --upload-file + URL pair specifies what to upload and to where. curl also
        !            20: supports "globbing" of the --upload-file argument, meaning that you can upload
        !            21: multiple files to a single URL by using the same URL globbing style supported
        !            22: in the URL, like this:
        !            23: 
        !            24:  curl --upload-file "{file1,file2}" http://www.example.com
        !            25: 
        !            26: or even
        !            27: 
        !            28:  curl -T "img[1-1000].png" ftp://ftp.example.com/upload/
        !            29: 
        !            30: When uploading to an SMTP server: the uploaded data is assumed to be RFC 5322
        !            31: formatted. It has to feature the necessary set of headers and mail body
        !            32: formatted correctly by the user as curl will not transcode nor encode it
        !            33: further in any way.
