create and manage web archives
thoresson | Oct 31 2006
Hi, I'm new in the OS X-world, and have just learnt about Safari's web archive function. As a freelance journalist, having the possibility to save websites that might be useful in the future as selfcontaining files are a great possibility. Even better if there was some software that helped me in creating and manage the web archives. To do it in Safari requires a couple of mouseclicks. Is there anything around that would let me create a web archive out of a url in the clipboard or similar just with the press of a hotkey? And what about sorting and tagging the created archives so that they are easily available in the future? /Anders 13 Comments

I really want to like EagleFiler. I love love love SpamSieve, and I was excited by the native file format storage of information in EagleFiler. In practice, though, it hasn't been all roses. On my PB, the appliction is slow - almost unusable slow - and I've only(!) loaded about 4,000 web archives and documents into it. I don't know if it's just that I haven't had time to play with it and understand it correctly, but the capture isn't quick enough either - I've tried to capture a web page archive and then switch back to another application, but the capture is trying to work on the (now) active application, which is unsupported. Jury's still out for me on EagleFiler. I somehow think that with a few applescripts/automator actions for capture and tagging with Spotlight comments, some smart folders, and Spotlight's search, I'd be good to go just using the OS(X). Not that I have time to do that mind you... :) » POSTED IN:
