I downloaded from the Terminal with the "youtube-dl" command .

Worked fine.

I'm familiar with a YouTube Downloader for Windows.  I knew about youtube-dl, but I wanted something graphical for me, and something I could recommend to others.  Now that I'm more terminal brave than before, I may investigate youtube-dl.  The ClipGrab program looks tempting.  But I suppose if I want to avoid browser extensions and PPAs, youtube-dl would be the better option.

So far, I have everything working the way I need and want.  Ten days ago, I even finally installed (to my laptop) that Samsung SSD I bought back in November.  I'm enjoying the steady state of speed and reliance.  I'll experiment later.

What's 'ftw' (file tree walk)? 
I used the standard youtube-dl [video URL] to download this video.
What difference does youtube-dl ftw [video URL] make?

[member=411]bitsnpcs[/member] - looks really useful - many thanks - cool!

Cheers
Mike

2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
