| Sends the "Referrer Page" information to the HTTP server. This can also be set |
| with the --header flag of course. When used with --location you can append |
| ";auto" to the --referer URL to make curl automatically set the previous URL |
| when it follows a Location: header. The \&";auto" string can be used alone, |
| even if you do not set an initial --referer. |
| |
| If this option is used several times, the last one will be used. |
