- .SH NAME
- wwwoffled - A proxy server for the World Wide Web Offline Explorer.
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .B wwwoffled
- .B [-h]
- .B [-c <config-file>]
- .B [-d [<log-level>]]
- .B [-p]
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- .I wwwoffled
- is a proxy HTTP server for the
- .I
- World Wide Web Offline Explorer program. Using a standard web browser with the
- HTTP proxy set to the wwwoffled server, web pages can be requested while not
- connected to the internet.
- .LP
- When the computer is connected to the internet, the server will fetch the web
- pages requested by the browser and also store them in the cache. When the
- computer is not connected, browsing of the pages in the cache is still possible,
- and links can be followed. This causes the request for the page to be stored by
- the proxy server until a later time when the computer is connected and the pages
- are fetched non-interactively.
- .LP
- Pages that are requested from a server on the same host (localhost) are not
- cached, and are always fetched fresh from the server.
- .LP
- There is a welcome page at the URL http://localhost:8080/ that contains some
- information about the program and links to the cache index, interactive refresh
- page, interactive control page and WWWOFFLE internet home page.
- .LP
- The pages that are stored in the cache can be indexed by using the URL
- http://localhost:8080/index/ to get a list of the hosts that have cached pages.
- The index allows sorting of the pages into time or alphabetical order, by
- following links from this page. There is also indexes available showing the
- pages that have beem modified in the last week, those fetched last time online
- and those requests that are waiting to be fetched next time online.
- .LP
- The functions available from the wwwoffle(1) program for fetching URLs are also
- available in the interactive refresh page at http://localhost:8080/refresh/.
- .LP
- The functions available from the wwwoffle(1) program for controlling the
- wwwoffled program are also available in the interactive control page at
- http://localhost:8080/control/.
