Thanks Edward,
I found another Java based application that seems to work pretty well on Linux.
One problem I found with wget was that it did not like some directory formats,
in particular those with slashes that go the Win way (/ cf \). And Vidiot was a
little correct in that some files did not download because they seemed to be
called by some kind of CGI script. However this application gets around all
these issues and I don't have to bother anyone who uses Win to get it for me.
It is called WEBsaver -- it does need a runtime installed, I use Blackdown.
Incidentally if you have a preference for Win I did find a freeware app called
SiteStripper. Seems to be fast and complete.
