${PROGRAM_NAME} -- a simple wrapper around curl to easily download files.
Usage: ${PROGRAM_NAME} <URL>...
${PROGRAM_NAME} [--curl-options <CURL_OPTIONS>]... [--no-decode-filename] [-o|-O|--output <PATH>] [--dry-run] [--] <URL>...
${PROGRAM_NAME} [--curl-options=<CURL_OPTIONS>]... [--no-decode-filename] [--output=<PATH>] [--dry-run] [--] <URL>...
${PROGRAM_NAME} -h|--help
${PROGRAM_NAME} -V|--version
Options:
--curl-options <CURL_OPTIONS>: Specify extra options to be passed when invoking curl. May be
specified more than once.
-o, -O, --output <PATH>: Use the provided output path instead of getting it from the URL. If
multiple URLs are provided, resulting files share the same name with a
number appended to the end (curl >= 7.83.0). If this option is provided
multiple times, only the last value is considered.
--no-decode-filename: Don't percent-decode the output filename, even if the percent-encoding in
the URL was done by wcurl, e.g.: The URL contained whitespaces.
--dry-run: Don't actually execute curl, just print what would be invoked.
-V, --version: Print version information.
-h, --help: Print this usage message.
<CURL_OPTIONS>: Any option supported by curl can be set here. This is not used by wcurl; it is
instead forwarded to the curl invocation.
<URL>: URL to be downloaded. Anything that is not a parameter is considered
an URL. Whitespaces are percent-encoded and the URL is passed to curl, which
then performs the parsing. May be specified more than once.
