       [-f|--fetch  file] [-d|--delete]

DESCRIPTION

       Currently the stored name and file type is not queried so you can potentially install  a  PDF  file,  and
       retrieve it as a ZIP file.

       You must take care to remember what type of file you are installing and fetching. This will be updated in
       a later release to handle this type of capability, as well as handle multiple 'Schlep' files.
