kurly

Designed as an alternative to curl and having a similar name, kurly is a Windows utility that can be used to transfer information from HTTP and HTTPS servers. In addition to Windows, it's compatible with Linux and mac OS X.

The application can be accessed from a command-line interface right after downloading the package, thanks to the fact that it doesn't require installation.

To get a list of all supported commands, you can simply call kurly's process without inputting any arguments. You can also get descriptions on a particular command using "help".

The syntax is pretty straightforward: kurly [global options] command [command options] [arguments...]. As far as global options are concerned, you can specify a fielname to name URL content to (--output value, -o value), indicate which file you want to upload (--upload-file value, -T value), and save the output to a file that's names with part of the URL (--remote-name, -O).

kurly supports resuming transfers from an offset (--continue-at value, -C value), verbosity output (-v), along with restrictions on the maximum time to wait before an operation is carried out (in seconds, default is 0, --max-time value, -m value).

Other features can be used for following 3xx redirects (--location, -L-), sending data as binary or URL-encoded ASCII (--data-binary value or --data-urlencode value) or pointing out the preferred HTTP method (default is "GET", --request value, -X value).
