All right: what commands does one use with youtube-dl? Is that a command-line
application? I suspect I might already have it in my system--but I thought "dl"
meant "dynamic linking," same as in MS Windows. Does "-dl" mean "download" 
instead?
If so, I'd love to have a full set of commands so I can bag me some videos 
before
YouTube takes them down.

dnf install youtube-dl

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ dnf info youtube-dl

And then the one thing many people forget

man youtube-dl


I've tried three times to download videos, and each time I'm getting a fatal error: "Name or service not known." How do I get past that?
