How 'bout just downloading one nice big neat pdf file? http://www.usinglinux.org/docu/guides/linuxcookbook-1.2.pdf You could convert that to html with 'pdftohtml'. Whether the resulting document would meet your rigorous standards, I dunno. If not, if you find the names of the html files in your possession inconvenient, why not rename them? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
