`path`	A path relative to the root directory of `argo_mirror()` or `argo_cache_dir()`. This value can also be a data.frame with a `file` column (e.g., a global index as returned by `argo_global_meta()` and others).
`download`	A logical vector indicating whether or not a file should be downloaded. Defaults to the value of `argo_should_download()`, which is `TRUE` for files that do not exist in the cache.
`async`	Use `TRUE` to perform HTTP requests in parallel. This is much faster for large numbers of small files.
`quiet`	Use `FALSE` to show which files are downloaded and for more verbose error messages.
`max_global_cache_age, max_data_cache_age`	The maximum age in hours to keep cached files. Use `Inf` to always use cached files; use `-Inf` to always force download. You can set the default values of these using `options(argodata.max_global_cache_age = ...)` and/or `options(argodata.max_data_cache_age = ...)`.
