I am trying to make a download manager for Linux just like Internet Download Manager.
I wanted to know how does IDM integrate with the browsers without using any Extensions (Chrome) or Add-Ons (Firefox)
Also if i could know about the Overlay we say during a Video on the Browser (Download this Video).
Thanks in Advance.
I’m fairly certain that such program do use extensions and addons.
In fact I had a quick look at IDM which you mentioned, and it contains
IDMGCExt.crx(chrome extension) and aidmmzcc.xpi(firefox addon), and some of the dlls are probably windows shell- and IE-extensions…The only other way I can think of would be to write a NPAPI-plugin, which would cover a lot of compatible browsers at once, but writing a program that interacts with a browser without any of these won’t be possible with today’s browsers.
