Maximum RPM has been posted to usenet as a compiled help file (CHM)

the site http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm
was recursively downloaded using

>wget -m <url>

FAR, by Helpware, was used to build the CHM (WinXP). GIMP (linux) was used to make the cover graphic.

the NZB is here
http://www.tlviewer.org/max-rpm.nzb

To see which usenet group and grab with Pan, look inside the NZB.

the command below can be used to fetch it
>perl nzbperl.pl max-rpm.nzb

nzbperl is here http://noisybox.net/computers/nzbperl/

if you need a x86_64 package for uudeview go here
http://www.tlviewer.org/c5repo/web

This was a nice one-day project.
ps
Does anyone know how to compile a CHM on Linux? I know a few chm clients on linux, but nothing that can build a CHM.

regards,
