Feature Request: Download from Url

[khahoon]

Hi

It would be great if Calibre could download files from direct urls. For example sometimes I find some articles or free pdf files that I want to add to my library. The normal way is to download and organize them then import them into Calibre. With direct importing feature , this will be much more streamlined.

Maybe there is a feature for it or maybe an existing command line way.

thanks

Calibre supports the concept of a Watch folder from which items are automatically imported. Maybe simply downloading to the folder you have set for that will give you what you want?
