the callback is confusing me. if I now invoke download(), how would I do it? What would I place as the cb argument? I have the download('someURI', '/some/destination', cb) but don't understand what to put in the cb

@Abdul You specify the callback with a function only if you need to do something when the file has been successfully fetched.

It would be good to check the status code before saving: response.statusCode == 200
