Re: [orca-list] youtube-viewer login question

Jude:

I can't quite figure out what you're asking. But, if you're wanting to
pass login and password from the command line, there's a standard http
syntax for that. Perhaps this might meet your needs? It works like this:

http://login:passwd@url

Example:

https://janina:password youtube com/blah/blah
