curl

Transfer a URL

root@kali:~# curl -h
Usage: curl [options...] <url>
 -d, --data <data>           HTTP POST data
 -f, --fail                  Fail fast with no output on HTTP errors
 -h, --help <subject>        Get help for commands
 -o, --output <file>         Write to file instead of stdout
 -O, --remote-name           Write output to file named as remote file
 -i, --show-headers          Show response headers in output
 -s, --silent                Silent mode
 -T, --upload-file <file>    Transfer local FILE to destination
 -u, --user <user:password>  Server user and password
 -A, --user-agent <name>     Send User-Agent <name> to server
 -v, --verbose               Make the operation more talkative
 -V, --version               Show version number and quit

This is not the full help; this menu is split into categories.
Use "--help category" to get an overview of all categories, which are:
auth, connection, curl, deprecated, dns, file, ftp, global, http, imap, ldap, 
output, pop3, post, proxy, scp, sftp, smtp, ssh, telnet, tftp, timeout, tls, 
upload, verbose.
Use "--help all" to list all options
Use "--help [option]" to view documentation for a given option

wcurl

A simple wrapper around curl to easily download files.

root@kali:~# wcurl -h
wcurl -- a simple wrapper around curl to easily download files.

Usage: wcurl <URL>...
       wcurl [--curl-options <CURL_OPTIONS>]... [--no-decode-filename] [-o|-O|--output <PATH>] [--dry-run] [--] <URL>...
       wcurl [--curl-options=<CURL_OPTIONS>]... [--no-decode-filename] [--output=<PATH>] [--dry-run] [--] <URL>...
       wcurl -h|--help
       wcurl -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.
