       circumstances.

       httpfs2 is a FUSE based filesystem for mounting http or https URLS as files in the filesystem. There is
       no notion of listable directories in http so only a single URL can be mounted. The server must be able to
       send byte ranges.

           Failure (url parsing error, server error, FUSE setup error). Some FUSE errors may happen only after
           the process forks so they will not be returned in exit value.

-cconsole
           Attempt to use the file ior device console for output after fork. The default is /dev/console.

       -f
           Do not fork, stay in foreground.

       -ttimeout
           Use different timeout for connections. Default '30’s.

       URL
           The url should specify the protocol as http or https, and it may specify basic authentication
           username and password. Currently special characters like whitespace are not handled so the URL cannot
           contain them. See a sample URL below:

               http://user:password@server.com/dir/file

       FUSE-OPTIONS
           These options are passed to the FUSE library. At the very least the mount point should be specified.
