Terminal Utilities
cURL
Use the -e or --referer flag to directly set the Referer:
$ curl --referer "http://comes-from.example.com" https://www.example.com - or - $ curl -e "http://comes-from.example.com" https://www.example.com
Since the Referer is passed as an HTTP header, you can also change the Referer header by using the -H or --header flag, which lets you manipulate headers:
$ curl --header "Referer: http://comes-from.example.com" https://example.com - or - $ curl -H "Referer: http://comes-from.example.com" https://example.com
