- Long: data-binary

- This posts data exactly as specified with no extra processing whatsoever.
- If you start the data with the letter @, the rest should be a filename. Data
- is posted in a similar manner as --data does, except that newlines and
- carriage returns are preserved and conversions are never done.
- Like --data the default content-type sent to the server is
- application/x-www-form-urlencoded. If you want the data to be treated as
- arbitrary binary data by the server then set the content-type to octet-stream:
- -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream".
- If this option is used several times, the ones following the first will append
- data as described in --data.
