I am looking for either a script or application which allows me to download all files from Google Cache, as i'd like to archive a site which is currently offline.

Downloading manually by clicking on the Cached webpage is very tedious when doing it manually.

The script must take into account, when you have search hits over multiple pages, so you'd manually click onto next.

thanks

Have you tried something like:

I only need to download the "Cached" content returned from Google cache and nothing else.

It should create local directories when necessary and store content there. I mention this because I found a Firefox plugin which claimed to do be able to scoop up content from Google cache, but did'nt create the local directory's nor did it give the correct local filename's.

wget won't handle the multiple page search results. I don't think there is an option with Google to return 1 very loooong page instead of multiple search results else that would be very handy for scripting :-)
100 results per page is the maximum setting.

I don't think that a wget 1-liner will do what I want (pls correct me if you know of a trick)

Sorry, I'm not quite sure I'm understanding your issue. Are you saying you want to, eg. go to http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=linux+questions (search for "linux questions"), and download the website you get when you click on the "Cached" link by the search result? (the link I got was http://webcache.googleusercontent.co...w.google.co.uk)

EDIT: Wait, I found this article. Are you talking about trying to do this in a script, without the plugins?
