HTTP Prompt is an interactive command-line HTTP client featuring autocomplete and syntax highlighting. Download url -> https://github.com/eliangcs/http-prompt – Joe C. Hecht – Google+

To me it looks remarkably similar to https://github.com/jkbrzt/httpie [WayBack] which too is a visual cURL replacement.

For automated installs that cannot have UI interaction:
The install is “per user” as it is a user-local application; it installs in %LocalAppData%\Programs\Fiddler\Fiddler.exe.
Note that Fiddler acts as a HTTP proxy. When Fiddler starts, it hooks itself into the default WinINET proxy (which is used by any tool using the WinINET API, including Edge, Internet Explorer, Chrome, but not FireFox).
If you kill your Windows machine before stopping Fiddler, it cannot restore the WinINET proxy, so you have to do that by hand (otherwise you cannot browse web pages any more).
Manual restore:
"C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe" shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL inetcpl.cpl,,4–jeroen

Hosted at: Decode URLs from The Great Suspender after a browser restart fails to reload them
Converts URLs like these:
chrome-extension://klbibkeccnjlkjkiokjodocebajanakg/suspended.html#url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.barryodonovan.com%2F2012%2F06%2F29%2Fmigrating-svn-with-branches-and-tags-to-git
back into
http://www.barryodonovan.com/2012/06/29/migrating-svn-with-branches-and-tags-to-git
Source below.
It decodes a URL encoded by The Great Suspender which is a cool Google Chrome plugin that suspends pages after some idle time.
The uncool thing is that when Google Crome restarts after a crash (it’s software, it does that, especially as it consumes truckloads of memory and is full of memory leaks) it often fails to restore some (but not many) of the suspended pages into a usable state: it shows only the encoded URLs.

Contrast:
When making the contrast of the text lower and lower…designers need to think of
- elderly
- users with bad vision
- low quality monitors
- bad lighting and glare
- reading on tiny screens

A while ago, I heard about xmllint, a program that can parse and query xml from the command-line.
Later, I discovered it can also parse html, can recover from xml/html errors and has an interactive shell that has a lot of commands (see table below) to navigate through the loaded command.
The relevant command-line options:
--recover
--html
--shell
Note that --recover will output failing input to stderr. You can ignore that using 2> /dev/null
Some good examples of usage are here:
The table of shell commands:
Shell
xmllint offers an interactive shell mode invoked with the –shell command. Available commands in shell mode include: Command Parameter Description base display XML base of the node bye leave shell cat node Display node if given or current node. cd path Change the current node to path (if given and unique) or root if no argument given. dir path Dumps information about the node (namespace, attributes, content). du path Show the structure of the subtree under path or the current node. exit Leave the shell. help Show this help. free Display memory usage. load name Load a new document with the given name. ls path List contents of path (if given) or the current directory. pwd Display the path to the current node. quit Leave the shell. save name Saves the current document to name if given or to the original name. validate Check the document for error. write name Write the current node to the given filename.

This was very useful to get a WebClient with a WebProxy configured to use a proxy server that is based on NTLM authentication.
The note in the MSDN NTLM and Kerberos Authentication. documentation however was totally wrong.
String MyURI = "http://www.contoso.com/";
WebRequest WReq = WebRequest.Create MyURI;
WReq.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;Note NTLM authentication does not work through a proxy server.
This code works perfectly fine as the CredentialsCache.DefaultCredentials contains your NTLM or Kerberos credentials.
It even works when you have a local Fiddler http proxy as a facade in front of your NTLM proxy.
