.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass a char * pointing to a \fIfilename\fP for your private key. If not used,
libcurl defaults to \fB$HOME/.ssh/id_dsa\fP if the HOME environment variable
is set, and just "id_dsa" in the current directory if HOME is not set.
libcurl defaults to \fB$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa\fP or \fB$HOME/.ssh/id_dsa\fP if the
HOME environment variable is set, and just \fB"id_rsa"\fP or \fB"id_dsa"\fP in
the current directory if HOME is not set.
If the file is password-protected, set the password with
\fICURLOPT_KEYPASSWD(3)\fP.
