Lauri Niskanan on the Lute-Ning page kindly gave a very nice little
tutorial for batch-downloading a book and w/ his permission (and
addendum at 7b) I reprent it here.
If you use Firefox (and if you don't, um... I dunno what plug-in to
use for other browsers)
---------------------
1. Get Firefox
2. Tools -> Add-ons
3. In Get Add-ons, write "downthemall!" in the search field
4. Select "DownThemAll!" and click "add to firefox"
5. On any web page, in this case on the page where you see "links to
resources" and the thumbnails, right click anywhere [Mac users: Ctrl
+click], select "DownThemAll!" in the dropdown menu.
6. Select a folder to save the images in. Since the program saves
individual images, you should make a folder per tablature book to
better organize the files.
7. Under Filters, select JPEG images
7b. You should click "disable other filters" in the bottom right
corner, so it doesn't download anything extra.
8. Under Fast Filtering, write */file/* (The images we want are the
ones that have /file/ in their URL)
9. Under Download, you will now see links in red with selection marks
before them, those ones will be downloaded.
10. Click Start!
---------------
It just worked fine for me on the Mac and I don't see how it wouldn't
work cross-platformly. Credit for this goes to Lauri for the
instructions! Yay! more music!

Arthur,
Thanks for the link. There's some really interesting stuff there! I
didn't see a way to download files, though. Can one only view them?
