.TH CURLOPT_PREQUOTE 3 "June 18, 2017" "libcurl 7.60.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"

.SH NAME
CURLOPT_PREQUOTE \- commands to run before an FTP transfer
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PREQUOTE,
                          struct curl_slist *cmds);
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a linked list of FTP commands to pass to the server after
the transfer type is set. The linked list should be a fully valid list of
struct curl_slist structs properly filled in as described for
\fICURLOPT_QUOTE(3)\fP. Disable this operation again by setting a NULL to this
option.

While \fICURLOPT_QUOTE(3)\fP and \fICURLOPT_POSTQUOTE(3)\fP work for SFTP,
this option does not.

  /* pass in the FTP commands to run */
