+
+For a request to the given HOST:PORT pair, connect to
+CONNECT-TO-HOST:CONNECT-TO-PORT instead. This option is suitable to direct
+requests at a specific server, e.g. at a specific cluster node in a cluster of
+servers. This option is only used to establish the network connection. It
+does NOT affect the hostname/port that is used for TLS/SSL (e.g. SNI,
+certificate verification) or for the application protocols. "host" and "port"
+may be the empty string, meaning "any host/port". "connect-to-host" and
+"connect-to-port" may also be the empty string, meaning "use the request's
+original host/port".
+
+This option can be used many times to add many connect rules.

+---
+Reverses the default initiator/listener roles when connecting with FTP. This
+option makes curl use active mode. curl then tells the server to connect back
+to the client's specified address and port, while passive mode asks the server
+to setup an IP address and port for it to connect to. <address> should be one
+of:
+.RS
+.IP interface
+i.e "eth0" to specify which interface's IP address you want to use (Unix only)
+.IP "IP address"
+i.e "192.168.10.1" to specify the exact IP address
+.IP "host name"
+i.e "my.host.domain" to specify the machine
+.IP "-"
+make curl pick the same IP address that is already used for the control
+connection
+.RE
+
+If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. Disable the
+use of PORT with --ftp-pasv. Disable the attempt to use the EPRT command
+instead of PORT by using --disable-eprt. EPRT is really PORT++.
+
+Since 7.19.5, you can append \&":[start]-[end]\&" to the right of the address,
+to tell curl what TCP port range to use. That means you specify a port range,
+from a lower to a higher number. A single number works as well, but do note
+that it increases the risk of failure since the port may not be available.

+Please note that if FILE protocol is disabled, there is no way to use a local

+Tells curl to use \fIprotocol\fP for any URL missing a scheme name.

+Example:

+An unknown or unsupported protocol causes error
+\fICURLE_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL\fP (1).

+Help: Enable/disable PROTOCOLS on redirect
+Added: 7.20.2
+---
+Tells curl to limit what protocols it may use on redirect. Protocols denied by
+--proto are not overridden by this option. See --proto for how protocols are
+represented.
+
+Example, allow only HTTP and HTTPS on redirect:
+
+ curl --proto-redir -all,http,https http://example.com
+
+By default curl will allow all protocols on redirect except several disabled
+for security reasons: Since 7.19.4 FILE and SCP are disabled, and since 7.40.0
+SMB and SMBS are also disabled. Specifying \fIall\fP or \fI+all\fP enables all
+protocols on redirect, including those disabled for security.

+list.
+.RE
+.IP
+For example:
+.RS
+.TP 15
+.B --proto -ftps
+uses the default protocols, but disables ftps
+.TP
+.B --proto -all,https,+http
+only enables http and https
+.TP
+.B --proto =http,https
+also only enables http and https
+.RE
+
+Unknown protocols produce a warning. This allows scripts to safely rely on
+being able to disable potentially dangerous protocols, without relying upon
+support for that protocol being built into curl to avoid an error.
+
+This option can be used multiple times, in which case the effect is the same
+as concatenating the protocols into one instance of the option.

+---
+Extra header to include in the request when sending HTTP to a proxy. You may
+specify any number of extra headers. This is the equivalent option to --header
+but is for proxy communication only like in CONNECT requests when you want a
+separate header sent to the proxy to what is sent to the actual remote host.
+
+curl will make sure that each header you add/replace is sent with the proper
+end-of-line marker, you should thus \fBnot\fP add that as a part of the header
+content: do not add newlines or carriage returns, they will only mess things
+up for you.
+
+Headers specified with this option will not be included in requests that curl
+knows will not be sent to a proxy.
+
+This option can be used multiple times to add/replace/remove multiple headers.

+When an HTTP proxy is used --proxy, this option will cause non-HTTP protocols

+Help: Write output to a file named as the remote file
+---
+Write output to a local file named like the remote file we get. (Only the file
+part of the remote file is used, the path is cut off.)
+
+The file will be saved in the current working directory. If you want the file
+saved in a different directory, make sure you change the current working
+directory before invoking curl with this option.
+
+The remote file name to use for saving is extracted from the given URL,
+nothing else, and if it already exists it will be overwritten. If you want the
+server to be able to choose the file name refer to --remote-header-name which
+can be used in addition to this option. If the server chooses a file name and
+that name already exists it will not be overwritten.
+
+There is no URL decoding done on the file name. If it has %20 or other URL
+encoded parts of the name, they will end up as-is as file name.
+
+You may use this option as many times as the number of URLs you have.
