There's a big difference in turning a page the size of your hand when you are already holding the book and trying to click a micro button the size of a word when you use the arrow keys to move the browser window.

I'll just wait until the exact same information appears on a single page. I was expressing sincere regret because I liked the first page, but I absolutely will not read paginated articles.

Also: you're obviously irritated by my grumbling, but grumbling about it is just a massive load of hypocrisy, so please realize I'm not going to be taking any of your comments all that seriously.

I agree with your sentiment. Hence:

  ~ $ curl -s 'http://www.realworldtech.com/arm64/'{1..5}'/' --compressed > a.html; open a.html

("open" is OS X-specific; "nautilus-open" might have a similar function on Linux or something.) Interestingly, that website seems to deliver gzip-compressed output no matter what you request.

I'm ashamed I didn't think of this :) Thanks, it worked exactly as expected.

xdg-open for any FreeDesktop-compliant system (basically any Linux since about 2000).

That is clever. What is the {1..5} syntax called? I am trying to figure out what the zsh equivalent is.

Relevant terms are "brace expansion" and "range". And, um, at least for me, the command I wrote works verbatim in zsh. (I think zsh is supposed to be bash-compatible like that.) Brace expansion works like this (in zsh and bash):

  % echo {1..5}
  1 2 3 4 5
  % echo meh{1..5}
  meh1 meh2 meh3 meh4 meh5
  % echo {1..5}{1..5}
  11 12 13 14 15 21 22 23 24 25 31 32 33 34 35 41 42 43 44 45 51 52 53 54 55
  % echo {1,2,4}{1,3,9}
  11 13 19 21 23 29 41 43 49

I have observed one difference in brace expansion: {a..f} -> "a b c d e f" in bash, but "{a..f}" in zsh. Curious. Oh well.

In Chrome: typing Ctrl+F <space>2<space> <Esc> <Enter> will get you to the next page, no need to use the mouse if you're concerned about moving your hands.

Although I ended up reading the 'curl'ed version, I wanted to say this is also a decent solution. Cheers

For the book there a a physical need to seperate it into pages, it would be worse to read one long paper scroll.

But webpages is easiest to read if its one long article, they just split it up to inflate their page view.
