You have read the documentation, haven't you? As you've no doubt discovered,
there are hundreds of options available, and they ALL have something to do
with transferring files. That's what libcurl is all about, after all.
The documentation will explain, for example, that the third parameter in
the curl_easy_setopt call for CURLOPT_FTP_FILEMETHOD is not the number
of bytes, as well as what all the other options in the --libcurl output
are for.
