| Subject | Kate editor documentation as downloadable HTML file(s)? |
| Message-ID | <JPVJT-dFNn-5@gated-at.bofh.it> |
I recently discovered Kate. One might think its design goals were how I
work and a specific personal project I have. Get idea that I like it ;}
I find HTML formatted documentation much more usable than PDF.
A fine manual at https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/kate/index.html .
Two questions:
1. Has someone packaged it as a downloadable file?
2. Is there a script that would download it to a specific local
directory in a manner that all it's internal links work?
TIA

To what URL do you refer?
The only *downloadable* files listed at
https://docs.kde.org/index.php?language=en&package=kate
are PDF.

When Kate is launched *ALL* references to "handbook" take me to the web-page *NOT* to anything local! Give me explicit directions to this "docbook" information please.
