# `--remote-name`
|
|
|
|
Write output to a local file named like the remote file we get. (Only the file
|
|
part of the remote file is used, the path is cut off.)
|
|
|
|
The file is saved in the current working directory. If you want the file saved
|
|
in a different directory, make sure you change the current working directory
|
|
before invoking curl with this option or use --output-dir.
|
|
|
|
The remote filename to use for saving is extracted from the given URL, nothing
|
|
else, and if it already exists it is overwritten. If you want the server to be
|
|
able to choose the filename refer to --remote-header-name which can be used in
|
|
addition to this option. If the server chooses a filename and that name
|
|
already exists it is not overwritten.
|
|
|
|
There is no URL decoding done on the filename. If it has %20 or other URL
|
|
encoded parts of the name, they end up as-is as filename.
|
|
|
|
You may use this option as many times as the number of URLs you have.
