a test:

in data-sch.lua you can find:

local function runcurl(name,cachename) -- we use sockets instead or the 
curl library when possible
     local command = "curl --silent --create-dirs --output " .. 
cachename .. " " .. name
     os.spawn(command)
end

you can try to add an option there, remake the format and see if that 
works i can see if we can add such an option (by default or setup)
