Command line Download Manager for Linux

1) "AXEL" --- less interactive but lite and fast Downloader

How to download and install :-- download from "Software Center" directly

How to Use :-- open terminal and write
$ axel --help

To start Download :--
$ axel -n [no. of parallel connection (eg. 4)] [Download link (eg. http://abc.com/nvn.zip) ]

2) "PROZILLA" ---- better GUI than AXEL but it is also Command Line

How can Download and install :-- open terminal and execute below command

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tldm217/tahutek.net
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install prozilla

To use :-- open terminal and write
$ proz --help

To start Download --:
$ proz [Download link (eg. http://abc.com/nvn.zip) ]


I suggest for PROZILLA because it have RESUSME capability and Download speed as "Internet Download Manager"
