This page http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/ is incredibly useful and I'd like to be able to access it when I have no internet, is there an offline (html or pdf) version of it?

You could mirror it!

Code: Select all

cd destination_directory
wget --mirror -nH  http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/
The usage docs on my system is 584 Mb or just over 1/2 Gb
That is what happens when you make example pages using images, even though I try and only use small images!

Note mirroring will break symbolic links and as such duplicate source images but there shouldn't be a big increase in size.
Then again many of these images in sub-section are not linked to by the text just copied (symlinked) from the 'image' source directories so the commands in the text can be run in the section sub-directories.

WARNING: the examples are constantly updating in active areas... Just today saw some very interesting additions made to 'Layering Images' due to another thought provoking topic.
