Remote Self Hosted HTTP Downloader

Introduction

remdl is HTTP Downloader intended to be hosted in remote machines. It features HTML Web Client (No JS and Not even CSS!) to add,remove,list downloads.You can also download files which are downloaded in remdl to your local machine. Most of code in remdl comes from grab and you can consider remdl to be fork of grab with many of its features removed (remdl takes only URL , Optional Filename as input ,and most other features of grab like Checksum Verification,Basic Auth,etc. are removed) and a minimal HTML Web Client which is some raw HTML written to response body just to let remdl be controlled in web browser.

remdl was written as personal program just to satisfy the occassional downloading needs of author (not intended to be used by anyone else). There are very high chances that this program may not be for you. remdl is ultra-minimalistic in the sense it is intended to be primarily used by author and all features not necessary to author was removed.
