What program can I use to bulk download this list of links? [closed]

There's not been any way of doing this from a browser or without downloading dodgy one-hit wonder freeware so I've written a Chrome browser extension that fits the bill.

It's called TabSave, available in the webstore here.

You can paste in a list of URLs and it'll download them, no fuss :-)

It also has the ability to download every tab open in the active window, hence the name. This is the default, just click the edit button to insert a list yourself.

It's all open source, the GitHub repo is linked in the webstore description if you want to send a pull request (or suggest a feature).


For your needs, Chrono Download Manager or TabSave can download a list of links quickly. Both are Chrome extensions, so no need to download desktop software.


And maybe this could be useful for you:

In my own experience, I prefer Chrono Download Manager because I needed to change automatically the name of the downloaded file in a BATCH-way (a list of VIDEOS from a hmm hmm... online courses) and crawling in the html code all the different videos have the same filename. So downloading it with TabSave just gives you the same name videos and you have to guess wich is the content (somewhat like "543543.mp4", "543543(1).mp4", "543543(2).mp4" and so and so).Imagine how much extra work you need to do to achieve this kind of task.

If you need quick list download of files as-is, go TabSave. If you need start to need change the name files on the run, go Chrono.


I know I'm gravedigging here, but I was searching for a similar program and found BitComet which works really well, you can import url's from textfiles etc.
