Downloader

A function to force downloading any URL in modern browsers. 102 bytes.

Usage

download(url,optional_filename)

E.g.

download("https://gist.github.com/","gist_index.html")

Note: this function takes advantage of HTML5 "download" anchor attribute so for now it works only in decent&recent engines: WebKit, Blink and latest Gecko.

index.js

function(u,n){with(document.createElement("a"))href=u,download=n||u,dispatchEvent(new Event("click"))}
