| Dec 23, 2015 at 21:14 | comment | added | CodesInChaos | Tested it in chrome and it doesn't work either. The downloaded file still contains html. Did you check the content of the file? | |

| Dec 23, 2015 at 19:13 | comment | added | ale | @CodesInChaos: It works just fine. Yes, if you just click the link it will open GitHub's page for that file, but "Save link as..." saves the file in its "native format". | |
| Dec 23, 2015 at 17:03 | comment | added | CodesInChaos | Those links go the the html page for that file, not the file itself. (Unless you're referring to another file list, in which case you should extend your answer to describe how to get to that file list) | |
