Description

I often work on public PCs in my labs. When I find something worth downloading, I have to use a USB stick — but that means sitting there until the download finishes. What I’d like is an option in CopyParty to add remote download tasks directly to my own server.

Specifically:
- An option to add a WebDAV server IP address (or credentials/URL). CopyParty should then copy everything from that remote source into a local CopyParty folder in the background.
- Or a simple remote download manager: paste one or more links (HTTP/FTP/magnet), and CopyParty queues them to download directly on the server.

This way, instead of waiting around at a public PC, I could just quickly add the download links to my server. Later, I’d access the finished files directly from my CopyParty instance.
