[Nfb-web] Programs for Quick Aggregation of Search or Directory Listings?

HI All,

At the Open Directory (DMOZ.org) site, there is a category for which there 
are more than 300,000 results. I'd like to aggregate the information for 
future use. But with 20 listings per page, that's far more than 15,000 pages 
to copy and paste. So, does anyone know of a program that can gather all of 
the text from pages within a category of a search directory and put them in 
1 file? Someone said years ago that Web Ferret did a similar thing. It 
gathered multiple pages of search results and aggregated them in 1 document. 
Though back then I never got it to do that correctly. Can anyone point me to 
some utility-type program that can gather info in such ways, please? Thanks 
for any help with this.


Strive On!
