Mangasee123 Downloader

Prerequisites

7-Zip

For the Mangasee123 Downloader to work you need to have 7-Zip as Command Line Tool install. In the way that it is accessible with the command 7z in the terminal.

On windows you can download this from the 7-zip.org download page. Make sure to take 7-Zip Extra: standalone console version version. (yes, yes you need to have working 7z or something that can work with it installed before). After extracting the archive move the file 7za.exe to a folder that is in PATH (like C:\Windows) or make a folder and add it to PATH. Also rename it to 7z.exe otherwise it will not work.

Installation

Download the corresponding binary from the releases page. On Windows Drop it somewhere where it will be in a folder already covered by PATH like C:\Windows or add it manually to PATH. On Linux make an alias to it or add it to /bin or /usr/bin.

Alternatively you can just use it through the terminal directly, if you are in the same folder in the terminal as where you downloaded/have the program at. You probably then should use ./mangasee-dl or ./mangasee-dl.exe respectively.
