# properties for Dropbox application
# Application credentials are mandatory
dropbox.app.key={key}

*/
final Dropbox dropbox = new Dropbox("~/.dropbox.config");
// Get the first 8 bytes of a file
final ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(8);
dropbox.filesGet("dropbox file path")
    .withRange(0, 7) // from (inclusive) - to (inclusive)
    .toOutputStream(baos);
