Thanks, Jean-Frédéric! I did not know about your tool. I did spend some time looking for a tool on Commons, most specifically here[1], but didn't find anything appropriate. It did not occur to me to just grep GitHub, though. :)

Sure. For convenience, I took this opportunity to push it on Pypi − makes it super easy to install.

Anyhow, my tool is on GitHub too[2], although it's incomplete. The category mode is working fine, but it was originally started (long ago) as a downloader for preparing images for offline Wikipedia editions, based on an article list, and supporting multiple parallel downloaders, and that part is incomplete.

Awesome! The more the merrier :)

I'll get around to finishing that Some Day Soon.

Ah, I certainly know the feeling ;)
