How to add multiple links simultaneously to Internet Download Manager?

I just swapped over to Internet Download Manager from JDownloader, and I can't figure out how to load a group of links at once.

If somebody posts a group of links for a large download, I have to click each one and follow it to the page for that file. I've tried copying the links like I do with JDownloader, but where JDownloader is able to grab the links from the clipboard and download them, IDM just downloads HTML files.

I emailed IDM support and they replied "You can add multiple links using "Tasks->Add batch download" IDM main menu item." but it's a one line input box, and I still don't understand how to add a group of links.

Can anybody clue me in?
