You got some URL on your clipboard and want to have that file right here? Run this:

Code: Select all

input $a, "Enter URL", <clipboard>; download $a;
I have this mini-script one click away in a Catalog item. :)

From version v7.60.0002 onwards you can control whether cookies are set/read.

The default is to use cookies:

Code: Select all

// download URL
  input $a, "Enter URL", <clipboard>;
  download $a;
Do it like this to not use cookies:

Code: Select all

// download URL
  internetflags "INTERNET_FLAG_NO_COOKIES", 1;
  input $a, "Enter URL", <clipboard>;
  download $a;

Is it possible to have a popup window menu for this command line? SO that suer can just paste and download?
