Yeah, I'm sure libcurl is sending Type A, I'm using a DebugFunction and it
prints out that TYPE = A.
Besides, I downloaded a text file in Unix format and I received a file in
Window format (newline = CRLF)
The file's opened in binary mode and I don't use a proxy. Using *
CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE* don't have any effect in my case.

You said about appending ;type=B to the URL, but how to set it through a
option? I can't find any document about it :(
Thanks for any help!
