Wish: DOWNLOAD command

[hostilefork]

It would be nice that if you generate text or binary data that you could ask the REPL to generate a file for you and save it.

There are some instances of this being done for text:

What would be nice would be if you could say something like:

>> download %my-download.zip zip [%file1.dat (data-var) %file2.txt (text-var)]

And have the browser give you a Save As... dialog where that binary could be saved.

If JavaScript is uncooperative for larger data or binary data, this could be done through a server that would proxy the request and give you a link to click on.

This seems to be possible via the "Blob" API:
