Simply typing http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/romfs/genromfs/0.5.2/genromfs-0.5.2.tar.gz works fine on a browser, but I'm trying to download from a CLI environment with limited utilities.
The following just returns an empty file:
curl http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/romfs/genromfs/0.5.2/genromfs-0.5.2.tar.gz
How do I get genromfs-0.5.2.tar.gz from sourceforge using curl?
Best Answer
You can do
to download the file.
The -L tells
curl
to follow any redirects, which sourceforge normally does.If
wget
is available, that would be far simpler.
