Short: A Long: user-agent Arg: Help: Send User-Agent to server Protocols: HTTP --- Specify the User-Agent string to send to the HTTP server. To encode blanks in the string, surround the string with single quote marks. This header can also be set with the --header or the --proxy-header options. If you give an empty argument to --user-agent (""), it will remove the header completely from the request. If you prefer a blank header, you can set it to a single space (" "). If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
