Description:
wcurl is a simple curl wrapper which lets you use curl to download files without having to remember any parameters. Simply call wcurl with a list of URLs you want to download and wcurl will pick sane defaults. If you need anything more complex, you can provide any of curl's supported parameters via the --curl-options option. Just beware that you likely should be using curl directly if your use case is not covered.

ftp/wcurl: remove port

wcurl is now folded into curl distribution archive and installed along
with curl. Keeping this port does not make sense anymore.

ftp/wcurl: add port: Simple wrapper around curl to easily download files

wcurl is a simple curl wrapper which lets you use curl to download
files without having to remember any parameters.

Simply call wcurl with a list of URLs you want to download and wcurl
will pick sane defaults.

If you need anything more complex, you can provide any of curl's
supported parameters via the --curl-options option. Just beware that
you likely should be using curl directly if your use case is not
covered.
