| 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 will |
| report an error. This is a request, not an order; the server may or may not |
| deliver data compressed. |
