Hey everyone,
I’m trying to figure out how to *curl access a binary* file directly from a URL. Like, I’ve got this link, and I wanna download the binary file without any fuss.
I’ve tried `curl -O [URL]`, but it saves it as a text file or something?? Not sure what I’m doing wrong.
Also, is there a way to make sure it’s actually downloading the binary and not messing it up? Like, does curl handle binary files properly by default?
Any tips or commands would be super helpful! Thanks in advance, y’all.
P.S. Sorry if this is a noob question, still getting the hang of curl access a binary stuff. 😅
