I’m not sure that anything is stopping you from crawling the site and
downloading the entire contents to your hard drive.


Would 'wget' or 'curl' be used for something like that?

wget -k -p -r https://www.sheldonbrown.com/ ./
might do the trick.


I use HTTrack:
http://www.httrack.com
for copying and backing up web sites. Open source. Available for
Windoze, Linux, and Android. Also includes command line versions.

Using the Windoze 64 bit version (my Linux Mint box needs a storage
upgrade), I downloaded about 40MBytes of https://www.sheldonbrown.com.
I can see view web pages, so HTTrack seems to be working. However,
it's midnight, so I'll stop here and continue tomorrow.


Thanks for this, too, Jeff. John N5HPB has wanted to get all the
archiveed magazines off this site, but I failed miserably.
I think these magazines might appeal to all these .tech types here as well.
