Extension summary
Often, University of Maryland professors will upload files to their class web pages that students need to view for assignments. However, most of the time the link is an automatic download, so the file gets stored on your computer. It's fairly annoying and can clutter the student's downloads folder very quickly. It would be much more convenient to simply open the file in the browser instead, and that's exactly what this extension does. Enjoy! This extension is open source, and can be found here: https://github.com/music/ElmsDownloadBlocker
