- Let's say you want to genreate a file server-side and send it back to the client's browser to download. If it's plain text, the browser will usually try to render it in a tab, without prompting the user what they want to do with it. The user could then save the page with <code>^s</code> but that's less than ideal. Ideally, they would click a link/submit a form, and immediately be prompted to save the file to save the file to disk and even open it in a local application. If they elect to always perform that action with files of that kind, the download will start immediately.
