To install it right away for all UNIX users (Linux, OS X, etc.), type:
- sudo curl -L https://yt-dl.org/latest/youtube-dl -o /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
+ sudo curl -L https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -o /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl

--no-mtime
--proxy 127.0.0.1:3128
-o ~/Movies/%(title)s.%(ext)s

```
Note that options in configuration file are just the same options aka switches used in regular command line calls thus there **must be no whitespace** after `-` or `--`, e.g. `-o` or `--proxy` but not `- o` or `-- proxy`.
