Hi. Yes, the commands I have tried are:
wget -r -l 2 url
wget -r -l 3 url

and also with 'url' and "url".

Essentially I want a direct mirror of the site -- so that I can click from the index page above, through to the html pages for the different "issues"; and then to the pdf files. Possibly I will need to expand the "volumes" before doing this?

I've been using this page as a guide:
Code:
http://linuxtuts.blogspot.com/2008/03/tutorials-on-wget.html

In fact I haven't managed to copy the html files yet; so obviously my understanding is wrong somewhere!
