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": https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/lftp-mirror-example/ -- Benjamin Henrion (zoobab) Email: zoobab at gmail.com Mobile: +32-484-566109 Web: http://www.zoobab.com FFII.org Brussels "In July 2005, after several failed attempts to legalise software patents in Europe, the patent establishment changed its strategy. Instead of explicitly seeking to sanction the patentability of software, they are now seeking to create a central European patent court, which would establish and enforce patentability rules in their favor, without any possibility of correction by competing courts or democratically elected legislators."

Gemini protocol tries to be simple and minimum. And the protocol already offers all the necessary features, the biggest problem is local (saving in local files, while guarding against servers using funny names for resources). May be the only missing thing is a way to inform the client of the allowable behaviour. (There is no standard robots.txt, even for the Web.)
