Hi
As everyone knows much better than I, the `android` executable, is the all-in-one utility to download and install sdk packages; nothing wrong with that, unless you have an unreliable, slow connection (like yours truly), in which case you might have wished you could actualy download the packages yourself (perhaps via some download manager/accelerator of your choice), and then feed them into the sdk manager for further installation.
I have built a dumb but working tool that separates these processes -- it fetches the list of all available sdk components from google's servers, lists them for the user, and lets the users install the packages they have downloaded through it, mediating between the user and the actual SDK manager. It is located at http://ift.tt/2csSVHv.
It's served me well, but I cede it might sound laughable to those who have quality Internet at their disposal. Still, I would be glad if anyone on this forum could take a look at it, share their opinions, and possibly help improve it even further. Thanks :)
