by BennyBeat, 7 years agoGlad to see Cliget is compatible with Firefox57 and up!
If you download information that is updated daily, or a program frequently, instead of wasting a precious time visiting that website regularly, you can automate the download with applications such as Aria, Curl or Wget. The problem is that these applications require quite complex commands. Cliget facilitates this work offering us a command that can be directly integrated into a sh or bat file, since Aria, Curl and Wget are available for Lin/Mac/Win platforms such Cliget. As simple as starting a download, Cliget already provides us with a link with all the necessary variables that can be used for next needed downloads. In addition, you can add custom variables. That way, you do not have to fight against the command line manually, and expose yourself to possible human error, or simply waste time with visiting each web page. Too bad I can not give more than 5 stars, because this program is a must-have for SysAdmins like me!

Is it possible to somehow download the files with IDM using the curl/wget link generated by cliget (cookies are also in the generated link) ? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12431053, 2 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by paul921, 2 years agoNote that this only works for things you can download. It is not an alternative to "Copy as cURL" for other things.
