Lima is a simple web file downloading utility that allows you to directly download a file and specify where to store it.

Usually, web pages will present a direct hyperlink to a file. Left-clicking on the link will cause the browser to download the file and take a preset action, while right-clicking on a link will give you the opportunity to download the file and save it to a specified location. 

Direct hyperlinks to files are not always available. These will be CSS, script or multimedia files that are embedded in the web page. As mentioned above, to use the browser to download these embedded references (by putting their url into the address bar) would cause the browser to take its predefined action. The browser will usually display the file in the browser, load the file into a plugin in the browser or run an external application to load the file.

Lima is useful for downloading files that are not available through a direct hyperlink on a webpage.

To use Lima, enter the url of the file and select Download. Lima will attempt to determine some information about the file you are trying to download and will prompt you as to where to save the file. You may also determine what action Lima should take once the file is downloaded.
