Yes, I *could* do all those manual downloads. That doesn't mean I want to do so for the sole purpose of fulfilling the developer's inscrutable need to pass out makeshift IQ tests.
I agree the job of exporting calibre library info can be nicely handled by calibre itself. But note that you do not need to change directories into the installation folder (which breaks nicely on 64-bit OS &32-bit calibre, different folders  ) since calibre adds itself to the %PATH%.
Also note the --for-machine flag, which outputs the list in JSON.

Your comments do not apply to DG, are irrelevant, and add no value. Worse, they confuse people who don't know anything about DG either.
A troll is someone who writes utter nonsense about something they know nothing about, just because they can.
