Alright I'll keep my bash script. Thanks for the input.

Ciao PMario

The fact your tool can save to sub-dirs of the "Downloads" folder is a big 
plus.

Hi Stefan, 

As TT pointed out. If you want to save outside the browser Downloads 
directory your bash script is fine. 

If you use FireFox my AddOn may be an option: see: Mozilla AddOns 
. OR latest 
beta-release  at github.

Especially see the homepage  and video 
links  ;)

have fun!
mario

As Jed commented, the issue is strongly related to browsers which limit 
saving to the download directory (though download sub-dirs can work too).

Bob (underneath its node based files) does not have these limitations. And 
through its "scripting" you could likely do anything.

But if you want to do this through single file wiki to a special directory 
outside downloads then the external bash copying route is likely easiest.

My 2 cents

This is closely related to the restrictions browsers have for file system 
access. The existing savers are the best we have for single file wikis. 
Using the same idea as the BobSaver or Put saver you could make a secondary 
save function that saves a file to an alternate location, and Bob has a 
'save to server' function that saves a single file version of the wiki on 
the file system. I don't remember if the location is configurable or if it 
is always in default output folder that the normal node server uses when 
you use the save command from the terminal.
