58 <p class="level0">Adds a request for compressed Transfer Encoding in the outgoing HTTP request. If the server supports this and so desires, it can respond with the HTTP response sent using a compressed Transfer-Encoding that will be automatically uncompressed by libcurl on reception.
59 <p class="level0">Transfer-Encoding differs slightly from the Content-Encoding you ask for with <a Class="bold" href="./CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING.html">CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING</a> in that a Transfer-Encoding is strictly meant to be for the transfer and thus MUST be decoded before the data arrives in the client. Traditionally, Transfer-Encoding has been much less used and supported by both HTTP clients and HTTP servers. <a name="DEFAULT"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">DEFAULT</h2>
