World Wide Web OFFline Explorer

The wwwoffled program is a simple proxy server with special features for use with dial-up internet links. This means that it is possible to browse web pages and read them without having to remain connected.

While Online

   - Caching of pages that are viewed for review later.
   - Conditional fetching to only get pages that have changed.
   - Modification of pages e.g. to remove the BLINK tag or popup windows.

While Offline

   - The ability to follow links and mark other pages for download.
   - Browser or command line interface to select pages for downloading.
   - Optional info on bottom of pages showing cached date and allowing refresh.
   - Works with password protected pages and pages containing forms.
   - Cached pages can be searched with the ht://dig search engine, or with
     namazu or mnogosearch which are similar search engines; however,
     support for other than ht://dig is limited.
