Yes, you can use cURL to download files from a website. cURL is a command-line tool used to transfer data to and from a server. It supports various protocols, including HTTP, FTP, IMAP, SMTP, and more.
Here's a simple example of how you can use cURL to download a file:
curl -O http://example.com/path/to/file
In this command, -O tells cURL to output to a file instead of the standard output. The file will be saved in the current directory and the name of the file will be the same as the name in the URL.
If you want to save the file with a different name, you can use the -o option followed by the file name:
curl -o newfilename http://example.com/path/to/file
For large files, you might want to use the -C - option to enable automatic resume of the download if it's interrupted:
curl -C - -O http://example.com/path/to/largefile
Remember that you need to have the cURL tool installed on your system to use these commands. Installation process varies depending on your operating system.
Note: Be careful when downloading files from the internet and make sure you trust the source. Downloading and opening files from unknown sources may compromise your system's security.
