Curl config

I'm adding a -w flag since I use Curl on daily basis and I need to see some stats... cat .curlrc

-w "\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------\nstatus=%{http_code} %{redirect_url} size=%{size_download} time=%{time_total} content-type=\"%{content_type}\"\n"
Proposed solution

Use -q flag in Pacaur's calls of Curl to skip the user config file, or force empty -w flag.
