Easier ways to add a download link #612

Motrix has grown to be a fine aria2 GUI and a great lightweight replacement of both Folx and Transmission on macOS (add search plugins and it could maybe even replace qbittorrent). And you're quite fast with developing it, thanks so much for your effort! 💯

What I would like to see is the ability to Cmd+V paste a link directly into the app without the need to click the + button first. (like you can just Cmd+V paste link into Transmisson), or even better you can have a top bar too working like it does in Folx, and the ability to paste a link anywhere in the app with cmd+V (I'm a fan of that approach):

Untitled

Also option in settings to automatically handle given link (without the popup asking where & how to download it) is really needed (every BT client has this), just start downloading the file, without this popping up:

Untitled

Again just some suggestions that would make your great app even greater.

This feature can be developed, but I think it may be necessary to change the shortcut key. Let me investigate first.

or automatic link grabbing like idm or better browser extension (with multi-os support )

Any possibility to implement search plugins?
