Debian Pastebin Thanks to folds at debian for making a tor network friendly pastebin. I have noticed that sometimes scripts get corrupted here, so best copy this from pastebin: https://paste.debian.net/1293211/

You can get the updated code here https://paste.debian.net/1293211/ Just paste it on to your notepad and give it execution permissions.

#edit 1: The program can be improved, if you guys feel like an improvement is needed, copy the entire program modify the parts you think can be made better and paste it in the comments or paste the pastebin link in the comments. I realize there are applications which are gui for yt-dlp but I felt they lacked many options. You can go on the man page, and learn and add attributes to make this script better so that it better suits your needs.
