specified. Posting data from a file named 'foobar' would thus be done with
\&"--data @foobar".
To post data purely binary, you should instead use the --data-binary option.
To post data purely binary, you should instead use the \fI--data-binary\fP
option.

\fI-d/--data\fP is the same as \fI--data-ascii\fP.
If this option is used several times, the ones following the first will
append data.
.IP "--data-ascii <data>"
(HTTP) This is an alias for the -d/--data option.

.IP "--data-binary <data>"
(HTTP) This posts data in a similar manner as --data-ascii does, although when
using this option the entire context of the posted data is kept as-is. If you
want to post a binary file without the strip-newlines feature of the
--data-ascii option, this is for you.

.IP "--digest"
(HTTP) Enables HTTP Digest authentication. This is a authentication that
prevents the password from being sent over the wire in clear text. Use this in
combination with the normal -u/--user option to set user name and
combination with the normal \fI-u/--user\fP option to set user name and
password. See also \fI--ntlm\fP, \fI--negotiate\fP and \fI--anyauth\fP for
related options. (Added in curl 7.10.6)
