Specify the filename as '-' to make curl read the file from stdin.
+Note that to be able to specify a URL in the config file, you need to specify
+it using the --url option, and not by simply writing the URL on its own
+line. So, it could look similar to this:
+
+url = "http://curl.haxx.se/docs/"
+
This option can be used multiple times.
