What’s the best way to handle downloading files with curl? or How do I automate downloading files wit

Yo, the `-C -` flag is a godsend for large files. But heads up—it doesn’t always work if the server doesn’t support resuming.

Also, if you’re downloading files with curl and wanna speed things up, tweak `--limit-rate` to avoid hogging bandwidth.

And yeah, curl sometimes just quits for no reason. Drives me nuts too. Maybe check the error code with `-v`?
