I go to a file with for example a .txt extension and there is no button to download, i have no option but to highlight and paste. This is ridiculous, how do i download such files from github? This system is so damn stupid.

GitHub Mate is the right tool to do, it's a Chrome extension currently. I felt painful as you, so I created this extension. It's open source here https://github.com/camsong/chrome-github-mate.

Click the Raw Link for the file, then (depending on your browser configuration) it will either prompt you to download the file, or it will just show the raw file in the browser and you can save it with File -> Save As
or whatever the equivalent is in your browser.
