You can use either `curl` or `wget` to download files from the internet using the Terminal on a Mac. Here are both methods: Using `curl` (built into macOS):
1 | curl -O URL_OF_THE_EXECUTABLE |
1 | curl -O https://example.com/file.exe |
1 | wget URL_OF_THE_EXECUTABLE
|
1 | /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" |
1 | brew install wget |
