I do not find a program that, given, a capsule name, would retrieve

recursively all the contents of the capsule (assuming there is at

least one path from the "home page" to it). Something like httrack for

the Web. This would be useful for backups, for instance.

I am planning to write one

<https://framagit.org/bortzmeyer/agunua/-/issues/20> but I wonder if

there is something already existing, among the command-line clients,

something I missed.

It should be built-in the protocol, something along the lines of "lftp mirror":
