I'm not sure where on the wiki it shows these in quotes, but on the page
I referenced, where I got the examples from, it most definitely does not
put these in quotes. However, this makes some sense as it is easier to
parse parameters if they are in quotes, rather than try to figure out
what value goes with what parameter. I'm just guessing on this, idk what
algorithm they use to parse command line parameters.
Putting these in quotes, like this:
steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir d:\gb1 +app_set_config "90
mod gearbox" +app_update "90 validate" +quit
on the first pass it actually downloaded the valve content. It also
downloaded cstrike content, which I neither wanted nor asked for. It did
not, and will not, download gearbox content. A step in the right
direction - now how to force it to download gearbox content?
So I loaded steamcmd, and from the steamcmd command line did this:
+app_set_config 90 mod gearbox
app_update
And when I did that it downloaded gearbox content. Not sure why it
wouldn't work by passing the above parameters.
Is it me or is steamcmd a bit on the buggy side?

Shouldn't the +app_set_config value be in quotes?
For example: +app_set_config "90 mod gearbox"
I'm pretty sure that's explicitly stated on the wiki. Also app update
should be +app_update "90 validate"

So once again it is fun and games with steamcmd. This time I'm
trying to
get a clean install of hlds/gearbox. Using the example from
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD, I'm doing this:
steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir d:\gb1
+app_set_config 90
mod gearbox +app_update 90 validate +quit
It does this:
d:\steamcmd>steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir d:\gb1
+app_set_config
90 mod gearbox +app_update 90 validate +quit

At which point I have the basic hlds files in my root directory, but
neither valve nor gearbox content has been downloaded. If run it
again
(and again...and again), the same things happens. It won't download
either valve or gearbox content.
So, I remove the mod gearbox from the command line, and it does
the same
thing. What am I missing? More specifically, how do you get
steamcmd to
download hlds and gearbox content?
