fanfic downloader!

I found a program that allows to download an entire fic at ffn (and other sites) into one textfile. I just downloaded a 15 chapter fic with three or four mouseclicks. No more pasting together 29 chapters one by one! I think this is the beginning of a wonderful friendship.

boy isn't that the truth. What's great is if the author has a master post you can use DownloadThemAll to download all the parts at once and use (Author Title of Story *text*.*ext*) in the renaming mask. If you have the greasemonkey script ?style=mine it'll automatically convert the downloaded files to ?style=mine. It helps with the downloading, not the merging.

sadly most of what I read is on LJ. I'm very happy when I find out the author also posted to ff.net because I go there to get their story instead if it's an option. :)
