Hi,
I`m testing a few download managers and found one "problem" I don`t really know how to solve.
When using Windoze (and JetCar/FlashGet as dl manager) I could always choose to add any url to the download list from the context menu of nearly any browser. Thats what I would like for OSX too.
Until now I have not found any program which can do that.
Does anyone have any ideas?
The lack of this feature mainly troubles me when visiting http://music.download.com . I would like to create a dl list first and then just start downloading before I leave. I already tested the possibility of using curl and wget , but both seem to be unable to handle the URLs provided by music.download.com (or I`m just too stupid to provide the correct options.. /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif )
So if anyone has an idea of either add any download manager to the context menu of safari or has an idea of how to "convince" wget / curl to handle those URLs , any kind of tip / hint / help would be very much appreciated...
