Description:
Surge is a high-performance, terminal-based download manager designed for power users. It features a headless daemon architecture and a TUI interface. Surge accelerates downloads by splitting files into parallel chunks and supporting multiple mirrors simultaneously. It also offers a keyboard-driven workflow, remote management via CLI or browser extensions, and a "Streaming Mode" for previewing media while downloading.
