If you start the data with the letter @, the rest should be a file name to
read the data from, or - if you want curl to read the data from stdin. The
contents of the file must already be URL-encoded. Multiple files can also be

\fI--data\fP @foobar. When --data is told to read from a file like that,
carriage returns and newlines will be stripped out.
