Google announced the interesting features in its section of assistance: now to add any link option? Fulldump = 1 and receive a full version of the section with all embedded page. Very convenient to search for the page could seek answers to their questions, and generally full documentation - it is always helpful. Personally, I have downloaded all the interesting parts of me. In particular:
