This is a common request. And a common problem since you don't specify what
"upload a file" means more specificly. Most commonly you use multipart
formposts when uploading on "the web" which is what curl's -F option is for.
But PUT is the more HTTP-oriented way of doing "file uploads"...

Well, that's not HTML so it doesn't really describe how the HTTP request
should look like. That looks like a writup for some other system, and how that
gets translated to HTTP is beyond what I know.
