I am having a issue with curl

getting data...
caching thumbnails...
curl: option -Z: is unknown
curl: try 'curl --help' or 'curl --manual' for more information
sxiv: No valid image file given, aborting
cleaning up...

The script line is:

done | curl -Z -K -
#sh_info "downloaded thumbnails..."

Now it is working correctly.
I think my curl was an old version.
But, I give you a suggestion to add these websites to get beautiful wallpapers.
I think more beautiful ones than wallhaven.

sites for getting wallpapers
https://www.wallpaperflare.com
https://wallpaperscraft.com
https://wallpapersafari.com/
https://wallpaperaccess.com
https://wall.alphacoders.com

This is good for Jitsi, OBS and Zoom background

yes, I should have added this.
Curl version should be > 7.68.0
for parallel downloads

Do these websites have an api? It would be much easier to make an application for a website which has an api. Else we would need to scrape it.
