Quicklink is a simple command line tool to save a web URL as a file on your system. This file is a .url file that opens in the default browser when double-clicked.
$ pip install quicklink
$ cd [directory]
$ quicklink [filename] [url]
$ quicklink quicklink_github https://github.com/CarlJKurtz/quicklink
This will create a file called quicklink_github.url in the current directory that opens this GitHub page in the default browser.
Quicklink is entirely free of charge for both commercial and private use! But code doesn't write itself — so please consider sharing this project, or even support the project by sponsoring it on GitHub if you got some use out of it! 🤘🏼
