2021.04.07, checked, and now have 2021.04.17 . (Yes, it's a
command-line prog.; however, you can put your garlic and crucifix away -
it's dead easy to use: most of the time, just giving it the URL suffices
[and that's pastable - alt-space E P].)

Or, if your hand happens to be on or near the mouse, you can paste with a
single right-click.

Wow, just tried that, and it can even include an enter on the end!
(Though as my hands are on the keyboard anyway from typing youtube-dl
[and a space], I might not use it. But thanks!)

Like Paul said, watch for that trailing CR. It can bite you.

I also wanted to say that I have renamed youtube-dl.exe to be just yt.exe
so that I can invoke it by typing ytspaceright-clickenter.

If you do leave it with its original name, remember that the system will
type it out for you if you type enough of its name to be unique, then
hitting Tab.
