I did see that, but after doing it five or six times without success, I
figured that wasn't the problem. Turns out is was the problem after all,
and I just needed to keep trying. I'm guessing that something somewhere
can fail, and fails often, without returning a failure indication. So
steamcmd finishes and tells you everything worked just fine. I'm not
sure what "validate" does, but it obviously does not validate the game
files it should have downloaded.

Sadly, this is a known issue, which is why there's this text on the
wiki page: "HLDS (appid 90) currently require multiple installs before
the game's files are installed.".
I thought Alfred was looking into it, though.
As for the other thing, any commands that take multiple arguments need
the entire thing quoted on the command line (but not in a runscript
file), which should be mentioned on the wiki but isn't.

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?
