launch command line FROM kodi

[Skywatch]

Do you still need kodi running whilst downloading? If not then just stop (exit) kodi and you will be at the command propmpt and start agian afterwards. IF you need to do this regularly then a cron job should do it. You might also look at a bash script to do the download and then auto restart kodi when it is finished. Final suggestion is to add superrepo to the kodi addons and see if there is something in there that might be useful.

Hope this gives you some ideas to look into to solve your problem!
