1)Axel : Download from http://axel.alioth.debian.org/ current version = 1.1

Simple command line downloader.

Simple GUI using Zenity:

#!/bin/sh

url=`zenity --title="Axel " --text="Enter url" --entry`
user=`zenity --title="Axel " --text="Enter username" --entry`
pass=`zenity --title="Axel " --text="Enter password" --entry`

axel http://"$user":"$pass"@"$url" 

Remember url shud not have “http://”

ps: if you don’t want user name password

#!/bin/sh

url=`zenity --title="Axel " --text="Enter url" --entry`

axel "$url"

Here url needs “http://”
