Add archive.org download support to download.py#25
Merged
Conversation
Auto-detect source from URL: archive.org/details/ routes to the new internetarchive-backed downloader; all other URLs use the existing World Radio History scrape path unchanged. New flags: --pdf-format (text/image/both, default text), --year-from, --year-to. Adds requirements.txt and updates README with archive.org usage examples. Closes #4.
