invoke a rest service from command prompt

I need to invoke a wcf rest service from command prompt. For eg, when i type 

C:\Users\Admin>GET http://localhost:63088/RestCatalogService.svc/

it should return whatever the GET would return in a browser in string format.Any idea how to start with or links to any related resources will be greatly helpful.

Install your favorite HTTP tool (cURL, wget) into your PATH, then use it.

Do note that that would look something more like :

C:\Users\Admin>curl http://localhost:63088/RestCatalogService.svc/

or

C:\Users\Admin>wget -O - http://localhost:63088/RestCatalogService.svc/
