# `--compressed`
|
|
|
|
Request a compressed response using one of the algorithms curl supports, and
|
|
automatically decompress the content.
|
|
|
|
Response headers are not modified when saved, so if they are "interpreted"
|
|
separately again at a later point they might appear to be saying that the
|
|
content is (still) compressed; while in fact it has already been decompressed.
|
|
|
|
If this option is used and the server sends an unsupported encoding, curl
|
|
reports an error. This is a request, not an order; the server may or may not
|
|
deliver data compressed.
