Three encodings are supported: \fIidentity\fP, which does nothing,
\fIdeflate\fP which requests the server to compress its response using the
zlib algorithm, and \fIgzip\fP which requests the gzip algorithm. This

Sets the contents of the Accept-Encoding: header sent in an HTTP
request, and enables decoding of a response when a Content-Encoding:
header is received. Three encodings are supported: \fIidentity\fP,
which does nothing, \fIdeflate\fP which requests the server to
compress its response using the zlib algorithm, and \fIgzip\fP which
requests the gzip algorithm. If a zero-length string is set, then an
Accept-Encoding: header containing all supported encodings is sent.
This is a request, not an order; the server may or may not do it. This
option must be set (to any non-NULL value) or else any unsolicited
