Allow non-binary downloads (such as text/html)

Shawn 7 years ago • updated 5 years ago • 5

I find myself needing to download from several sites that return the downloaded content as text/* instead of binary. These are batch, php, perl and powershell scripts - so they *are* textual in nature. Unfortunately, I can't use Ketarin to download updates directly because it always returns the error:


The downloaded file is not a binary file type (text/html; charset=utf-8). Possibly there is an error page. Status code: 200 (OK)

It should be noted that so far "text/html" is the only content type that has been ignored.

There is an option available in Ketarin 1.8.10 beta 2 (general settings) to allow text/html downloads.

Hello,


it would be even beneficial for storing change logs grabbed from sites in text form alongside downloads.


Thank you in advance for considering this.
