QuoteDownload files using wget or curl. This addon generates wget/curl commands that emulate the request as though it's coming from your browser allowing you to download protected files directly to a separate machine (e.g. server).

This could be a huge help for when I'm stuck on a satellite connection (like right now in fact). The download is impossible, the upload unthinkable, so I'm often doing wget from the shell, but it's a lot of steps to log into the shell and so forth just for one quick download.

Thanks!

I've not found how to use it.
I know wget in command line.
But no way to find a short key or menu for cliget in Firefox.
Thanks for showing me.
