+DESCRIPTION:
+A BASH script playing around youtube-dl. Will download the highest available video and audio quiality as mp4 files and then merge them together. Can be used to obtain high quality videos from youtube. You can also pass a list of URLs separated by a space.
+
+NOTE:
+This script works around the youtube-dl utility meaning you will need to have the package installed on your system.
