      8 If the given URL is missing a scheme name (such as "http://" or "ftp://" etc)
      9 then curl will make a guess based on the host. If the outermost sub-domain
     10 name matches DICT, FTP, IMAP, LDAP, POP3 or SMTP then that protocol will be
     11 used, otherwise HTTP will be used. Since 7.45.0 guessing can be disabled by
     12 setting a default protocol, see --proto-default for details.

     14 This option may be used any number of times. To control where this URL is
     15 written, use the --output or the --remote-name options.
