Add possibility to read multiple URL from input.txt.
Add support for plain URL's (meaning writing URL directly to the Switch).
Add support for saving plain URL's (meaning written URL will be saved in a different file temporaly until new written URL is encountered).

Put the .nro to sdmc:/switch/nXDownload/nXDownload.nro.

Create a file .txt (from any device).

Add few lines with links with formatted arguments:

Power on your Switch, and select what file to download.

Note:

When downloading large files, is better to put your Switch in Dock mode so you will not risk to:
This project is based on libcurl.
This project changes the heap size, to get the software Keyboard feature (can have memory issues). In future, this could change.
Use command line pacman -S switch-curl inside Msys2 to be able to compile this homebrew.
