Does --quote option support "~" character for sftp?

I use "curl -v -u user:password sftp://192.168.129.61/~/ --quote "-rm
/home/myuser/abc/test.txt" to remove test.txt, it's fine.

But if I use "curl -v -u user:password sftp://192.168.129.61/~/ --quote "-rm
~/abc/test.txt" to remove test.txt, it failed. I noted in the URL "~"
character is supported.

Does anybody give me a help?

Thanks,

Lisa
