How to download a file | Gateway

How to download a file using Whonix Gateway ? There is no browser there

why would you do that ?

its a security risk to download there, but if you want to move a file to the GW then it depend on which virtualizer you are:

vbox = enable drag/drop from settings
Qubes OS = right click then actions then move or copy to other VM

That depends on the wanted connection scheme. See:

Just now updated to use scurl-download rather than scurl for better usability.
