PERSISTANT CONNECTIONS Specifying multiple files on a single command line will make curl transfer all of them, one after the other in the specified order. libcurl will attempt to use persistant connections for the transfers so that the second transfer to the same host can use the same connection that was already initiated and was left open in the previous transfer.
