Subject: Kate editor documentation as downloadable HTML file(s)?
I recently discovered Kate. One might think its design goals were how I
work and a specific personal project I have. Get idea that I like it ;}
I find HTML formatted documentation much more usable than PDF.
A fine manual at https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/kate/index.html .
Two questions:
1. Has someone packaged it as a downloadable file?
2. Is there a script that would download it to a specific local
directory in a manner that all it's internal links work?
TIA

If you have firefox you can do a "save page as" which is what I do.
Otherwise you would have to
wget -np --mirror <url>
with the <url> being the url to the kate docs.

Try
wget -r -L -k https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kate/kate/index.html
and man wget for more options

Is it different from docs available in khelpcenter?

I suggest *NOT* ;/
Syntactically correct but has unexpected result.

"kate-data" package contains the kate documentation in docbook format.
Once installed, you should be able to access it through kate's help
menu or khelpcenter.
Synaptic reports "kate-data" is installed.
When Kate is launched *ALL* references to "handbook" take me to the
web-page *NOT* to anything local!
Give me explicit directions to this "docbook" information please.
