Let's add this as an option on the link tag. Could you file an issue in core? Please reference https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a#attr-download

Until then, you could supply a custom template for inline_anchor (for example, inline_anchor.html.slim). Here's the starting point:

https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-backends/blob/master/slim/html5/inline_anchor.html.slim

> link:<a href="<a href="https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]" class="">https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]"><a href="https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]" class="">https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]

There's no need to use the link: prefix when the URL begins with http: or https:. In other words, you can write this as:

<a href="<a href="https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]" class="">https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]"><a href="https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]" class="">https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]

If we implement the download option, then it will look like:

<a href="<a href="https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples,opts=download]" class="">https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples,opts=download]"><a href="https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples,opts=download]" class="">https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples,opts=download]

Cheers,

To be able to suggest to a browser that a downloadable file is a stream file, the html anchor syntax uses the 'download' keyword. To have asciidoctor give me this:

i have tried many variations of :

link:https://github.com/GPars/Website/blob/master/src/main/resources/downloads/gpars-1.0.0/gpars-samples-1.0.0.zip[Samples]

but no joy. Is this do-able ?
