Hi all, just wanted to say a massive thanks to everyone involved in putting this archive together. I'm soon to be an Appaloosa owner and am thoroughly enjoying learning about the company's history through the early Readers.
In case anyone wants to download the entire archive (all 3.2 Gb of it) for reading offline I was able to do so using wget with the following command: wget -r -np -nH -R index.html* https://notfine.com/rivreader/ Here's how I got wget working on my Windows 10 PC: 1) Downloaded the latest wget EXE for my x64 OS 2) Copied that file to my PATH directory (C:\Window\System32\) - note your PATH variable might be different, check it with command 'path' in cmd (see below). 3) Opened command prompt (click start, type 'cmd', hit Enter) 4) Navigated to my downloads directory with command 'cd Downloads'. Again this might differ for you. 5) copied and pasted (right click in command prompt) the wget command above This creates a new directory 'rivreader' and downloads every file and folder from https://notfine.com/rivreader/ If you want to download specific directory only (E.g. Ads), use the command: wget -r -np -nH --cut-dirs=1 -R index.html* https://notfine.com/rivreader/Ads/ *Note *that https://notfine.com/rivreader/ has identical contents to https://notfine.com/rivendell/ so either one is good.
