Hi,

I have found a nice programm. I connect me somtimes to my homecomputer via ssh and I tried to download gog games via wget, but it is impossible because gog generate the links unical.
But as I searched the internet I have found a programm to download games from gog via commandline.
here is a short text about the programm:
-> http://xmodulo.com/download-gog-games-command-line-linux.html

The manual is very difficult but I have good news. You can find the programm nowadays in your repo:
-> https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=lgogdownloader
In Debian for example since Jessie.

I want to inform you about this little nice programm, because gog gave us only a windows and a mac downloader. I also want to say "thank you" to the devs of this tool.

- THANK YOU -

Greetings from Germany

Edit:
I have tested the programm with the little game "blocks that matter". I have done this:
1. Install package via apt
apt-get install lgogdownloader
2. Configure login data
lgogdownloader --login
3. You can list all your games via "lgogdownloader --list". You also can grep for a game
lgogdownloader --list | grep block
4. Download the game without extras (no cover or soundtrack)
lgogdownloader --download --game blocks_that_matter --plattform 4 --no-extras

It works greatly. For more informations and options see the manual
man lgogdownloader

Have fun ;)

Actually, the URL you gave is longer and more complex than it needs to be.

You can search the repo simply by using the URL
https://packages.debian.org/[packagename]
or in this case
https://packages.debain.org/lgogdownloader

This is especially convenient if you know the package name and want to see whether it's in the archives; it saves having to go through a search engine like Google and navigate through multiple pages.
There is an official topic about lgogdownloader. :-)

There is also gogrepo.py for the same purpose, except that it's cross-platform since it's written in Python.

I tried it for a while but went back to lgogdownloader since it does everything I that need and does it much faster.

You are right. It was my mistake. I have search with the searchfield in iceweasel and only copy the link. Sorry.
