+.IP CURLU_PATH_AS_IS
+When set for \fBCURLUPART_URL\fP, this makes libcurl skip the normalization of
+the path. That's the procedure where curl otherwise removes sequences of
+dot-slash and dot-dot etc. The same option used for transfers is called
+\fICURLOPT_PATH_AS_IS(3)\fP.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Returns a CURLUcode error value, which is CURLUE_OK (0) if everything went
fine.
