Annotation of embedaddon/curl/docs/cmdline-opts/url.d, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       misho       1: Long: url
                      2: Arg: <url>
                      3: Help: URL to work with
                      4: ---
                      5: Specify a URL to fetch. This option is mostly handy when you want to specify
                      6: URL(s) in a config file.
                      7: 
                      8: If the given URL is missing a scheme name (such as "http://" or "ftp://" etc)
                      9: then curl will make a guess based on the host. If the outermost sub-domain
                     10: name matches DICT, FTP, IMAP, LDAP, POP3 or SMTP then that protocol will be
                     11: used, otherwise HTTP will be used. Since 7.45.0 guessing can be disabled by
                     12: setting a default protocol, see --proto-default for details.
                     13: 
                     14: This option may be used any number of times. To control where this URL is
                     15: written, use the --output or the --remote-name options.
                     16: 
                     17: Warning: On Windows, particular file:// accesses can be converted to network
                     18: accesses by the operating system. Beware!
