No substitute for having the right tool for the job. And this is the right tool for CLI downloading hosted content via wget/curl.

This tool works miracles even on those sites that allow just a single download, without an ability to retry after an HTTP session disconnect.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I can finally download 50 GB files from Google Drive over WiFi and not worry about having to constantly resume failed downloads!

I could use this to download the CityScapes dataset, https://www.cityscapes-dataset.com/

Works really well! However I would definitely appreciate an option to automatically unset "-O 'CurlWGetXXXX'" and set "-r -np --convert-links", also possibly "--remote-encoding=UTF-8 --local-encoding=UTF-8 --restrict-file-names=ascii".

I really like the tool. It works perfect to get the file downloaded directly into the server. However, I'm having just one problem with it. It affects Chrome "Last Download Location" setting. Whenever I try to download something using Chrome, I get the default Download Directory and not the last used directory. Is it possible to fix that? Thank you in advance. I tried to send you a msg through Linkedin but it was not possible. Thank you in advance and kind regards.

Does exactly what it needs to but would prefer if something this sensitive had it's code on Github
