Summary: save multiple files problem with -d

Initial Comment:
Hi,
referring to bug no. 3174457, bagder was right.

  curl -o file1 http://url1 -o file2 http://url2 -o file3 http://url3
works

I forgot to mention that I was using the -o and -d option like this,

 curl -o file1 -d "param1=1;param2=11" http://url -o file2 -d "param1=2;param2=22" http://url -o file3 -d "param1=3;param2=33" http://url

The url is always the same only the parameters are changing

In this case curl creates file1, file2 and file3 but all files are containing the same content of the last request with "param1=3;param2=33"

I'm using curl 7.20.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu)

Message:
That's not a bug, that's by design. Allow me to quote from the docs for the
-d option:

If any of these options is used more than once on the same command line,
the data pieces specified will be merged together with a separating
&-symbol. Thus, using '-d name=daniel -d skill=lousy' would generate a post
chunk that looks like 'name=daniel&skill=lousy'.

IOW: you can't do multiple different POST requests in a single command
line the way you're trying to.
