DESCRIPTION
httrack allows you to download a World Wide Web site from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from the server to your computer. HTTrack arranges the original site's relative link- structure. Simply open a page of the "mirrored" website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online. HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads.
EXAMPLES
httrack www.someweb.com/bob/ mirror site www.someweb.com/bob/ and only this site httrack www.someweb.com/bob/ www.anothertest.com/mike/ +*.com/*.jpg -mime:application/* mirror the two sites together (with shared links) and accept any .jpg files on .com sites httrack www.someweb.com/bob/bobby.html +* -r6 means get all files starting from bobby.html, with 6 link-depth, and possibility of going everywhere on the web httrack www.someweb.com/bob/bobby.html --spider -P proxy.myhost.com:8080 runs the spider on www.someweb.com/bob/bobby.html using a proxy httrack --update updates a mirror in the current folder httrack will bring you to the interactive mode httrack --continue continues a mirror in the current folder

FILES
/etc/httrack.conf The system wide configuration file.
ENVIRONMENT
HOME Is being used if you defined in /etc/httrack.conf the line path ~/websites/#
DIAGNOSTICS
Errors/Warnings are reported to hts-log.txt by default, or to stderr if the -v option was specified.
LIMITS
These are the principals limits of HTTrack for that moment. Note that we did not heard about any other utility that would have solved them. - Several scripts generating complex filenames may not find them (ex: img.src='image'+a+Mobj.dst+'.gif') - Some java classes may not find some files on them (class included) - Cgi-bin links may not work properly in some cases (parameters needed). To avoid them: use filters like -*cgi-bin*
