All of the cached files are in /var/spool/wwwoffle, this applies to
HTML pages as well as the images.

The README file contains a very short description of the contents of
the WWWOFFLE cache:

-------------------- WWWOFFLE README --------------------

Spool Directory Layout
----------------------

In the spool directory there is a directory for each of the network protocols
that are handled.  In this directory there is a directory for each hostname that
has been contacted and has pages cached.  These directories have the name of the
host.  In each of these directories, there is an entry for each of the pages
that are cached, generated using a hashing function to give a constant length.
The entry consists of two files, one prefixed with 'D' that contains the data
and one prefixed with 'U' that contains the URL.

-------------------- WWWOFFLE README --------------------

There is a program called wwwoffle-ls that will allow you to see the
mapping between the filename and the URL that is in the cache.

Try the following:

cd /var/spool/wwwoffle
wwwoffle-ls http://www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/

you should get something like this:

The image for http://www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/cache-now.gif is
in the file http/www.gedanken.demon.co.uk/DqYcRMlm9bPKVnn4jetXA7A.
