Command Usage: sam v8_1_5
sam get dataset

Just having some fun...
Command Description:

NOTE: copies the files of a dataset first on the cache of
your SAM station and then to the directory specified in "destination" or 
where  the sam command is invoked. In contrast to the dh get lite command, 
this command creates a SAM project and consumer to get the files.
The tool can be run in a "dry" mode where no actual staging is parformed. 
To achieve that downloadPlugin option may be set to "echo". 
The command is recoverable via "sam generate strict recovery project"

       sam get dataset <--requiredOptions> [--options] [-flags]
