PookaMustard: Alternatively, you could try and find a download manager for Linux that would hook on your browser and download anything through it (or paste the link of the download to it). On Windows I use Free Download Manager which even allows me to change the link in the properties of the download in case it fails entirely and I have to restart. If you were to find a similar software (because FDM isn't available for Linux I'm afraid), it'll be a boon for future downloads.
While I have no experience with the listed applications,
there are quite a few listed at alternativeto.net (where I did a search for alternatives to "Free Download Manager" that run on Linux).
Some are better than others, and others might not at all have the feature you're looking for, but going through the list, you might find something that works.
(Yeah. PookaMustard, I replied to yours rather than the OP, sorry about that, I tried to expand on your post.)
Geralt_of_Rivia: I would also suggest a download manager that hooks into your browser. I use DownThemAll for Firefox and it works very well with GOG.
For some reason I always read that as "Down The Mall", and get the image of someone swallowing an entire mall in one go.
