Overview

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.

Usage

seaward -h

This will display every option.
