what is the proper way to download a file...wait for it to complete...and then launch it ?

No simple way, I think. You do have to read first the info about the file to get its size (curl -I), then poll until the downloaded file's size reaches that value.

If you are a Smile user, polling is cool with "smilepause". Otherwise polling is less cool but you can do it using the "delay" command.
