I have implemented a --method command along with --body-data and --body-file commands for HTTP Scripting.
Have attached the patch alongwith this mail. However, this is not complete, not to my satisfaction atleast. There is redundant code that executes the old --post-data and --post-file commands. I think these commands should be set as an alias to --body-data and --body-file. While that is easily done by editing the commands[] array in main.c the issue is, how best to set opt.meth od to POST. Putting a conditional in setoptval() would be a terrible idea since it causes an extra condition evaluation everytime for just one particular case. But I am unable to think of any other method to merge the two internally. Please do suggest something.
