+
+CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_FILETIME_T, curl_off_t *timep);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Pass a pointer to a curl_off_t to receive the remote time of the retrieved
+document (in number of seconds since 1 jan 1970 in the GMT/UTC time zone). If
+you get -1, it can be because of many reasons (it might be unknown, the server
+might hide it or the server doesn't support the command that tells document
+time etc) and the time of the document is unknown.
+
+You must ask libcurl to collect this information before the transfer is made,
+by using the \fICURLOPT_FILETIME(3)\fP option to \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP or
+you will unconditionally get a -1 back.
+
+This option is an alternative to \fICURLINFO_FILETIME(3)\fP to allow systems
+with 32 bit long variables to extract dates outside of the 32bit timestamp
+range.
