+.TH GNURLOPT_TIMECONDITION 3 "17 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION \- select condition for a time request
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <gnurl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_TIMECONDITION, long cond);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Pass a long as parameter. This defines how the \fICURLOPT_TIMEVALUE(3)\fP time
+value is treated. You can set this parameter to \fICURL_TIMECOND_IFMODSINCE\fP
+or \fICURL_TIMECOND_IFUNMODSINCE\fP.
+
+The last modification time of a file is not always known and in such instances
+this feature will have no effect even if the given time condition would not
+have been met. \fIcurl_easy_getinfo(3)\fP with the
+\fICURLINFO_CONDITION_UNMET\fP option can be used after a transfer to learn if
+a zero-byte successful "transfer" was due to this condition not matching.
+.SH DEFAULT
+CURL_TIMECOND_NONE (0)
+.SH PROTOCOLS
+HTTP, FTP, RTSP, and FILE
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.nf
+CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
+if(curl) {
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com");
+
+ /* January 1, 2020 is 1577833200 */
+ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TIMEVALUE, 1577833200L);
