downloadable documentation for offline use

I was trying to get TC working on an old laptop and found myself bouncing back and forth between TC and Puppy because I couldn't get the wifi working, and didn't have another computer handy.  It would be useful if:

1) the wiki was very complete  ;) and
2) the wiki content was downloadable for offline use  :)

How about dumping the wiki and creating a downloadable extension? (I can't post the link to offline dokuwiki)
Of course, number one would require that wiki gnomes copy more of the useful info from the forums to the wiki.
The forums aren't very useful when you're having trouble getting networking working.  Thanks.

Hi BobBagwill
You could try using  File->Save As  in your browser to save individual web pages.

I don't think the wiki is very complete yet so what might be more useful for your regular linux problem is downloading man pages for later offline use, either manually or as extensions.

I still often ssh to my old debian machine when I want to look up some strange verbose command line options.

breakstuff:
Um, while your at it just download the whole Internet to your hard drive?

Guy:
All people contributing to Tinycore are volunteers.

The top priority is developing Tinycore and apps. A number of people are putting a lot of time and effort into that.

Anybody can contribute to the wiki, and many people have.

But like you say, it is incomplete and not up to date.

All contributions are appreciated. Anyone who has a good understanding and the time, is encouraged to contribute.

There is the possibility of making a help extension in the future. But the documentation should be up to date, complete, and to a professional standard first.

So please, use Tinycore, develop a good understanding, then contribute.
