Is there any way to get curl to decompress a response without sending the Accept-encoding headers in the request?

I'm trying to debug an issue where the order of the Accept-encoding headers may be relevant, but I also need to know what the response is. If I just send -H 'Accept-encoding: gzip and the server gzips the response, curl won't decompress it.

Probably the easiest thing to do is just use gunzip to do it:

curl -sH 'Accept-encoding: gzip' http://example.com/ | gunzip -

Or there's also --compressed, which curl will decompress (I believe) since it knows the response is compressed. But, not sure if that meets your needs.

curl --compressed http://example.com requests gzipped-compressed data and uncompresses it before writing to disk.
