Right-click the link and save-as. If you are downloading on tablet then long press on the link might bring up save-as, not sure. Or you can use

Code:

wget https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/raw/2011.08.04/youtube-dl --no-check-certificate

from a terminal on the tablet. Replace "wget" with "maemo-mini-curl" if you haven't installed it.

Doesn't matter where the file is located, the chmod allows it to be executed without explicitly passing it to the python interpreter.
