install (if you trust them) is to run their bootstrap installer directly
by using:

::

Install
~~~~~~~

::

    pip install udemy-dl

    python -m pip install udemy-dl

In OS X and Linux you need to ``sudo`` installing ``udemy-dl`` or you

Also you need to ``sudo`` installing ``pip`` itself or you run into the
same problem.

    python -m udemy_dl https://www.udemy.com/COURSE_NAME

``udemy-dl`` will ask for your udemy username (email address) and
password then start downloading the videos.

By default, ``udemy-dl`` will create a subdirectory based on the course
name. If you wish to have the files downloaded to a specific location,
use the ``-o /path/to/directory/`` parameter.

If you wish, you can include the username/email and password on the
command line using the -u and -p parameters.

If you don't want to download but save links to a file for later
downloading with a different downloader
