I prefer reading manuals offline. Is it available as a single HTML document?
I have not found it as a single HTML document, but it should be possible to generate it given that the online variant is also generated -- the HTML source tells it was generated by `makeinfo` which you can find it in package texinfo. On a Debian system with deb-src lines and texinfo installed, I could do: $ aptitude source recutils $ mkdir sub $ tar -C sub -xf recutils_1.7.orig.tar.gz $ cd sub $ makeinfo --html ./recutils-1.7/doc/recutils.texi Afterwards, the generated HTML files (not a single document, but the same view you find online) were available in directory `sub/recutils`. If it is just about offline reading and less about the HTML: Seems the complete documentation is shipped as part of Debian package recutils (access it via `info recutils`). HTH Linux-Fan
