ZnClient new url: ''; downloadTo: ''.

This is strange since I looked for download and the system did not
show it to me.

Open Spotter, type 'download', click implementors, look at the end or filter on 'Zn'.

The #saveContentsToFile: is used in snippet number 18 of Elegant Pharo Code, https://medium.com/concerning-pharo/elegant-pharo-code-bb590f0856d0 (already from 2014).
