Comparison

Tested on this page. This is a comparison of common available ways (default behaviour):

Software Complete Page Selection
Save HTML - 14 KiB 4 KiB
Wget - 24 KiB -
Falkon 350 KiB 24 KiB -
Writer (ODT) - 33 KiB 32 KiB
SingleFile 600 KiB - 580 KiB
Save Page WE 1.3 MiB - -

Motivation

This script was written because of the following reasons:

  • Some save-page extensions are not available to Falkon Web Browser.
  • The maintained save-page extensions are designed to save large portions of a webpage in order to make an authentic copy, hence unnecessary data (e.g. css, fonts, images etc.) is pulled, and may cause to a resulted file of 500KB sized up to 5MB sized and above.
  • FocusWriter Word Processor ignores hyperlinks, hence copy and paste task has to be made in a meticulous manner, which is both time consuming and might not always be accurate all the time.
  • LibreOffice takes time to load, so the copy and paste task might take between 30 to 60 seconds.
  • ODT files are often larger than an average subject HTML file.
