How can I use the Firefox, Chrome, and/or Safari Web browsers to batch download the content found at the other end of a list of URLs? Suppose I have a list of URLs, for example: https://distantreader.org/stacks/journals/crl/crl-11730.pdf https://distantreader.org/stacks/journals/ital/ital-5777.pdf https://distantreader.org/stacks/journals/ital/ital-5582.pdf https://distantreader.org/stacks/journals/ital/ital-4657.pdf https://distantreader.org/stacks/journals/crl/crl-9927.pdf https://distantreader.org/stacks/journals/crl/crl-11945.pdf https://distantreader.org/stacks/journals/crl/crl-12423.pdf Suppose also the list is saved as a file, or in my computer's clipboard. Is there someway I can get the Web browser(s) to download all of the files? From the command-line I can do this work in many ways and with one hand tied behind my back, but most people do not / will not use the command line. Thus I need a way to use the GUI interface of a Web browser to do the work. Got any ideas? Incidentally, all the URLs, above, point to articles written by Fred Kilgour (the founder of OCLC). A more complete list can be garnered with the following URL: https://distantreader.org/stacks/indexes/search?index=journals&query=author%3Akilgour&format=html -- Eric Lease Morgan Navari Family Center for Digital Scholarship Hesburgh Libraries University of Notre Dame 574/631-8604 https://cds.library.nd.edu
