How to generate a local html copy of the documentation from the VNUML wiki

Tested on Suse linux, although it should work on any distribution.

1. Download and install htttrack from http://www.httrack.com/
2. Get a copy of VNUML wiki:

 mkdir vnumlweb
 cd vnumlweb
 httrack www.dit.upm.es/vnuml

3. Create a script named vnuml-clean-web with the following content:

   #!/bin/bash
   
   for X in *
   do
     echo "Filtering file $X"
     cp $X $X.tmp
     cat $X.tmp                                        | \
     sed -e '/BEGINMENU/,/ENDMENU/d'                   | \
     sed -e '/BEGINSEARCH/,/ENDSEARCH/d'               | \
     sed -e '/BEGINPERSONALTOOLS/,/ENDPERSONALTOOLS/d' | \
     sed -e '/BEGINTOOLBOX2/,/ENDTOOLBOX2/d'           | \
     sed -e 's/<span class="editsection">.*]<\/span>//g' \
       > $X
     rm $X.tmp
   
   done
   

4. Execute that script on the directory where the main files reside, that is:

 cd www.dit.upm.es/vnuml
 cd index.php
 vnuml-clean-web

5. Delete the auxiliary files httrack generate in upper directory (it seems they are not needed): cd .. rm index????*.{html,css,php}
6. Load the index.html file in www.dit.upm.es/vnuml directory and you will have access to the local copy of the documentation.
