Thanks for that. I've been to that website before but it's not
until you look in the README that it mentions the option of HTML as
an output format as well as for input. In fact the "htmlsep"
format option does exactly what I wanted:

mkdir rpi_config
htmldoc -t htmlsep -d ./rpi_config 'https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/configuration.html'

It did pass through a few broken relative links that pointed to
other pages at the website, but I think I can live with that.
