Having done this for a while now, I realize what commands are available and when.
Right now the scripts set wget as the default command because curl is not yet installed, and use it from a variable going forward even after curl has been installed. The curl command is much faster than wget, and git would be a safer solution to aquiring all the data files in general.
Therefore, going forward the script will use the best known available command, instead of a fixed early-set variable.
