Seaward is used to discover every link on a web page (and its linked pages) without duplicates or to search for a word starting from the given URL.
If you want to save the links inside a file, you can run seaward <URL> --silent > file.txt
, and if you experience many timeout errors try using a higher timeout with -t
.
With the -d 0
option you crawl only the web page passed in the <URL>
parameter, with -d 1
also the pages linked to it (always within the same web site) and so on.
seaward -h
This will display every option.
