To install curl on a Debian Linux system, you can use the apt-get
command.
The apt-get
command is a utility that installs, updates, and removes packages on Debian-based systems.
To install curl, you can use the following command:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install curl
This will download and install the curl package and its dependencies.
You can find more information about the apt-get
command and its options in the Debian documentation or by running the apt-get --help
command.
Keep in mind that you will need to be logged in as a user with the necessary privileges to install packages on a Debian Linux system. You may need to use the sudo
command or log in as the root user to install curl.
Once curl is installed, you can use it to download files from the command line. For example, to download a file from a URL, you can use the following command:
curl -O http://example.com/file.txt
This will download the file and save it to the current working directory with the same name as the file on the server.
You can find more information about using curl on Debian Linux systems in the curl documentation or by searching online.
