    don't have the ability to download with your terminal, copy this to
    your WWW Browser:

    Hope this is old, cause web browsers don't support ftp:// links anymore :(

    Use wget or curl.

    Of course I know what _I_ can use, but the person's instructions are for other people :).

    Not all browsers fail to get files from an ftp link. Lynx will grab files from an ftp or gopher server as always although it's a text browser.

    I use firefox most of the time and it won't grab files from an ftp link, I find that annoying.

    It's a pain in the ass but curl or wget will get the job done if needed.
