One option would be to redirect stdout to a file:
curl -O http://path/to/your/file.dmg >& /tmp/prog.txt
Which will produce a nicely formatted text file that you could *tail* to get
progress updates from.
But you reach a stage where you think what's the point in coming up with so
many workarounds to avoid entering a single line in a Terminal window?
