This might be subjective but I think "DOWNLOAD" and "LOAD" are pretty
significantly different, both in shape and meaning (specifically in a
context that doesn't normally involve networking), so I see little
potential for confusion.

One could also go for "FETCH" maybe, but I like the big, all-caps
"DOWNLOAD". :-)


Thanks for this work by the way!  I love clean output.
