                     33: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     34: Pass a curl_off_t as parameter. It contains the offset in number of bytes that
                     35: you want the transfer to start from. Set this option to 0 to make the transfer
                     36: start from the beginning (effectively disabling resume). For FTP, set this
                     37: option to -1 to make the transfer start from the end of the target file
                     38: (useful to continue an interrupted upload).
                     39: 
                     40: When doing uploads with FTP, the resume position is where in the local/source
                     41: file libcurl should try to resume the upload from and it will then append the
                     42: source file to the remote target file.
