It doesn't have to be run as root, as it can just download and

when I suggested this to my newbie friend, she found the PATH
problem to be a hassle so I did wrapper scripts.
What we could do though is download it locally then give them a
"D shell" script to set the PATH up. (Or run it automatically in
.bashrc or something, but I kinda prefer making it a local script
they can run without changing any shared files)
