NAME

       CURLOPT_QUOTE - (S)FTP commands to run before transfer

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_QUOTE, struct curl_slist *cmds);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a	pointer  to  a linked list of FTP or SFTP commands to pass to the server prior to your request. This will be done before any other
       commands are issued (even before the CWD command for FTP). The linked list should be a fully valid  list  of  'struct  curl_slist'  structs
       properly  filled  in with text strings. Use curl_slist_append(3) to append strings (commands) to the list, and clear the entire list after-
       wards with curl_slist_free_all(3). Disable this operation again by setting a NULL to this option. When speaking to a FTP server, prefix the
       command with an asterisk (*) to make libcurl continue even if the command fails as by default libcurl will stop at first failure.

       The set of valid FTP commands depends on the server (see RFC959 for a list of mandatory commands).

       The valid SFTP commands are:

	      chgrp group file
		     The chgrp command sets the group ID of the file named by the file operand to the group ID specified by the group operand. The
		     group operand is a decimal integer group ID.

	      chmod mode file
		     The chmod command modifies the file mode bits of the specified file. The mode operand is an octal integer mode number.

	      chown user file
		     The chown command sets the owner of the file named by the file operand to the user ID specified by the user operand. The user
		     operand is a decimal integer user ID.

	      ln source_file target_file
		     The ln and symlink commands create a symbolic link at the target_file location pointing to the source_file location.

	      mkdir directory_name
		     The mkdir command creates the directory named by the directory_name operand.

	      pwd    The pwd command returns the absolute pathname of the current working directory.

	      rename source target
		     The  rename command renames the file or directory named by the source operand to the destination path named by the target op-
		     erand.

	      rm file
		     The rm command removes the file specified by the file operand.

	      rmdir directory
		     The rmdir command removes the directory entry specified by the directory operand, provided it is empty.

	      statvfs file
		     The statvfs command returns statistics on the file system in which specified file resides. (Added in 7.49.0)

	      symlink source_file target_file
		     See ln.
