       yaz-url - YAZ URL fetch utility

SYNOPSIS

       yaz-url [-H name:value] [-m method] [-O fname] [-p fname] [-R num] [-u user/password] [-v]
               [-x proxy] [url...]

DESCRIPTION

       yaz-url is utility to get web content. It is very limited in functionality compared to
       programs such as curl, wget.

       The options must precede the URL given on the command line, to take effect.

       Fetched HTTP content is written to stdout, unless option -O is given.

OPTIONS

       -H name:value
           Specifies HTTP header content with name and value. This option can be given multiple
           times (for different names, of course).

       -m method
           Specifies the HTTP method to be used for the next URL. Default is method "GET".
           However, option -p sets it to "POST".

       -O fname
           Sets output filename for HTTP content.

       -p fname
           Sets a file to be POSTed in the following URL.

       -R num
           Sets maximum number of HTTP redirects to be followed. A value of zero disables follow
           of HTTP redirects.

       -u user/password
           Specifies a user and a password to be used in HTTP basic authentication in the
           following URL fetch. The user and password must be separated by a slash (thus it is
           not possible to specify a user with a slash in it).

       -v
           Makes yaz-url dump each HTTP request/response to stdout.

       -x proxy
           Specifies a proxy to be used for URL fetch.
