That was not a proposition, but I have my faults in that post as well
I apologise. That post was without a context, which I later mentioned
in the last post of the thread, I know you replied with a very good
intention, so I am very sorry about that. Sudden thoughts come without
context (or alteast for me). I was talking about 'doas' and chmod 0 to
hide it in a single user machine (when programs run as the user). So
this idea seemed sufficient.

That's fine, the cvs command you mentioned does the same thing without
needing another set of work of publishing the /faq/ archived in the
website.

I was going off the lines that there was no other way than to crawl
and grab each pages with the command lacall mentioned in this thread
or something I came up with myself. I had not known about that cvs
command (or cvs itself). I am terribly sorry for not mentioning that
fact.

Also, I do not really mean to be rude after all this, but being 2026
has nothing to do with this. Computers had easy ability to run browsers
since the 90s
