20Silent or quiet mode. Do not show progress meter or error messages. Makes Curl
21mute. It still outputs the data you ask for, potentially even to the
22terminal/stdout unless you redirect it.

24Use --show-error in addition to this option to disable progress meter but
25still show error messages.
