Downloads v.redd.it videos as mp4s.
vdl file is an executable Python 2 script that can be copied right into your path.
Note: vdl downloads to the current directory by default, whereas vdl.py creates an ./out/ directory and downloads there.
Note 2: Actual v.redd.it URLs don't work too well because it should be easier to just link the post itself. If for some reason you find yourself having v.redd.it URLs more easily accessible than the post URL, open an issue and I can make it work.
