ia-get

Command-line downloader that fetches every file in an archive.org item, preserving directory structure.

Desktopfree

ia-get downloads files from archive.org by taking the URL of a details page, automatically fetching the XML metadata, and downloading every listed file into the current directory while preserving the original folder structure. It supports resuming partial or failed downloads, hash checks for integrity, cookie-based access to logged-in archive.org items, and a preview/list mode to see file names and sizes before downloading.
