How to Save and Download Text, Images, and Entire Webpages in Safari on a Mac

Sometimes you need to download text, images, or other content from a webpage to use elsewhere. Luckily, Safari makes that easy to do.

If you’re using the web to research interesting topics, you may find that you need to save texts, images, or even entire webpages for your online research. With Safari, you have several options for saving relevant online content. Read how to do it below.

How to Save Text From Safari

Save yourself a few clicks from the usual copy-and-paste trick. Simply highlight the text you want to copy and directly drag it into a text field. You should see the text shrink and a green plus (+) icon appearing as you hover your pointer over the text field.

Alternatively, you can also save a text snippet to an existing note. To do this, highlight the text in Safari, then Control-click or two-finger tap it. Choose Share > Notes . Select an existing note or add a new one by choosing New Note .

How to Save Images From Safari

Safari gives you several options when saving images depending on where you want them to be saved. To save an image, hover your pointer over the image, then Control-click or two-finger tap the image.

Choose one of the options from the popup menu:

• Save Image to “Downloads”: Choose this option to save the image in your Mac’s Downloads folder. This option immediately saves the image without allowing you to change its file name. If you have tons of images with confusing file names in your Downloads folder, not being able to change an image file’s name may make it hard to find later on.
• Save Image As: Choosing this option allows you to select the destination where your image will be saved and enables you to rename the file before saving it. This will enable you to keep it in a specific folder, allowing you to organize files as you save them.
• Add Image to Photos: If you select this option, the image will be saved in your Mac’s Photos app, under Imports . This may be useful if your photos are synced over iCloud and you want to access them using your other devices.

Note that some images, like background images, cannot be saved. Similar to text, some images can directly be dragged into a text field or even to your desktop. You can also add the image to the Notes app. Just Control-click or two-finger tap the image, then select Share > Notes .

How to Save a Webpage Link

Saving webpage links allows you to quickly access important webpages for later use, which is especially useful if it’s a website that you need to visit on a regular basis. Aside from copying the link from Safari’s Smart Search field , you can directly select and drag the link to a text field or your desktop.

You can also create a link bucket in your Notes app to save all your webpage links. To do this:

• Click the Share button, the icon with a box with an upward-pointing arrow, then choose Notes .
• Select the dropdown menu beside Choose Note to select the specific note where you want to save your link. You can also add some text to go with the saved link.

Pro-Tip: You can also add a webpage link as a to-do in Reminders . Saving it in Reminders allows you to customize the heading and add a note to the link.

Alternatively, you can bookmark a link or add it to your Reading List . To do this, open a webpage, click the Share button , then click Add Bookmark . Select the destination folder from the options in the dropdown menu if you have existing Bookmark folders. Otherwise, just select the Bookmarks folder. You can also rename your webpage and add a description. Follow the same process if you want to add the bookmark to your Reading List .

How to Save Entire Webpages

You can save an entire webpage for offline reading in Safari. To do this:

• Head to the menu bar, then click File > Save As .
• Rename the webpage and choose the file destination.
• Under Format , choose Web Archive if you want to save the text, images, and other content found on the page. Select Page Source if you only want to save the page’s HTML source code. This is useful if you want to view elements of a page that you want to incorporate on your own site.

Note that some webpages may not allow you to save items that appear on the page.

You may also opt to save the webpage in PDF format for later reading. You have the option to save it exactly as it is, in a Reader View without the ads and buttons, or customize it to your liking.

Saving Online Content Is Easy-Peasy

If you’re using the web to browse for relevant content, having a few hacks other than the old trusty copy-paste method not only saves you time but also allows for better content organization. With Safari, you can choose from several ways to snip content that meets your needs.

Troubleshooting, how to save webpage as pdf using safari on iphone & ipad.

Are you looking to save a webpage or multiple webpages as PDF files to your iPhone or iPad? There are many reasons you might want to do this, perhaps you’re wishing to save a webpage receipt as a PDF for record keeping, to archive a page, or to access a web page offline. Fortunately, Safari makes it easy to convert webpages into PDF files.

The ability to create PDF from webpages in Safari was first introduced with the release of iOS 11. However, the steps needed to access the same has been slightly tweaked if you’re running a newer version of iOS like iOS 15, iOS 14, and iOS 13. The advantage of having PDF files of webpages is that they can be viewed even when you’re not connected to the internet and they can also be easily printed out. Plus, you can share it with your colleagues along with other files. So let’s check out creating a PDF from a webpage by using Safari on iPhone or iPad.

How to Save Webpage as PDF with Safari on iPhone & iPad

The following steps are applicable if your iPhone or iPad is running iOS 13/iPadOS 13 or later. On the other hand, if your device is running an older software version, you can follow this method instead .

That’s all you needed to do. You’ve successfully saved the current webpage as a PDF file on your iOS/iPadOS device.

The “Save to Files” option will only show up in the share sheet if you’ve selected the PDF format from the Options menu. This setting will be reset once you exit the share sheet. So, if you’re looking to save multiple webpages, you’ll need to repeat the above steps for each one of them.

If you’ve saved the PDF file in an iCloud Drive directory, it’s worth pointing out that the file will be accessible from all your other Apple devices as well, provided you’re signed into them with the same Apple account.

The saved webpage can then be shared as a file from the Files app instead of a webpage, which can then be viewed even offline by the recipient. The PDF file will follow the format of “Safari – (Date of Creation) – (Time of Creation).pdf”, but you can easily rename it according to your preference within the Files app .

Keep in mind that if the webpage had ads or other page styling, the downloaded PDF files will also show those ads or page styling. However, if you don’t want that kind of stuff in your saved PDF, you can switch to reader view in Safari and then follow the same steps to save it without any ads, page clutter, or styling elements.

Did you convert any webpage to a PDF file, or save webpages as a PDF file to your iPhone or iPad? What is the purpose you use this feature for? Do you use another approach? Let us know your experiences and thoughts in the comments.

This is really helpful, thank you.

This technique does not work with all webpages. Some webpages do not allow saving or printing.

Whilst this works, 1) It only includes a single page. 2) Margins are blotting out key page content.

I am on Android for the past 4 years but if memory serves me correct you can: expert > print > ping OUT on the print preview > export there > do whatever you want.

Hey, this is really useful! Thanks! I have previously used the method of printing to PDF, then reverse pinch, tap the share box on that one & save. Which works about as well (maybe in all apps that can print), but so very not-obvious.

How to Take a Screenshot of an Entire Webpage in Safari on a Mac

Taking screenshots of a webpage is a normal operation for many. Perhaps it’s to capture an image for a meme, graphs for a presentation, or to send that annoying error message to a disbelieving customer service rep. Whatever the reason, some of the standard Mac screenshot options may not do the trick.

Most of us are familiar with Shift-Command-3 to capture the entire screen, or Shift-Command-4 to capture a selected portion of a screen. You may even be familiar with Shift-Command-5 to capture a single window. But what if you want to take a scrolling screen capture of an entire webpage? The aforementioned tools can’t do that – they can only capture visible areas of your screen. So, is it even possible to take a screenshot that includes a portion of a webpage you would normally need to scroll to see?

Yes, there is! But it does take a few extra steps than just executing a single keystroke combination.

Screenshot a Webpage

• Open Safari and go to “ Safari > Preferences… “
• Click the Advanced tab and toggle on “ Show Develop menu in menu bar .”

• Navigate to the webpage you want to capture and from the Develop menu, choose “ Show Web Inspector .” Alternatively, you can hit alt-command-I (⌥⌘I).

• Select the Elements tab and right-click on the line that begins with “<html…”
• Choose Capture Screenshot

• Give it a moment to do it’s magic, and then select a name and location to save the file.

All done! Well, almost…

This could just be an issue I run into, but when capturing entire pages in this manner, there is a lot of empty container buffer around the image in the PNG file. You can see this in the Quick Preview of the file:

Let’s fix that.

• Open the file in Preview . If Preview is already your default application to open PNG files, you can simply double-click its icon.

• Drag the crosshairs in the empty area around the image. You’ll see the empty space selected and highlighted in red. Drag too far, and you’ll pick up the image itself. Don’t do that, we only want to select the empty area.

• When you let go of the mouse button, the highlighted color will disappear and be replaced with a dotted line indicating the selected area.

• Hit Shift-Command-I (⇧⌘I) to invert the selection.

• Hit Control-K (⌘K) to crop the image to the selection.
• Now you can hit Save (⌘S) and you truly are done. One cleaned up screenshot of an entire webpage.

OH man, Thank you so much for this post. it really helped me and saved a lot of my time.

Thanks for the helpful screen capture. I cannot get the clean up to work. The Shift+Command+I doesn’t work and I cannot get the Control+K to work. Can select the red area but that’s it.

Hoping you can help.

You show us how to capture OTHER web pages but NOT your own? That’s not cool dudes! If its not NOT for you, its not OK for anyone, right?

on Catalina, the part involving Preview to crop the image was a bit different, but I figured it out. Click on the show Markup Toolbar icon, then click on Rectangular Selection, then draw a box around the bit of interest, then click on “crop” in the toolbar. Repeat if needed. Zoom as needed.

Thanks for the insight!

Tried it on the article and when I try to pen saved .png I get message that either file is corrupted or can’t open the file format.

I ran into this also, then I quickly realized the file does not have the .png extension. Recaptured the screen and ensured when renaming the file, I added .png. Opened as a webpage though not as a preview. Still to figure out how to set preview as the default file opener for png files.

I’ve often wanted to do this. However, on this very page, while the initial steps seem to work, the resulting .png is un-openable by Preview or Pixelmator Pro or Quicklook. (“It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize.”)

File->Print->Save as PDF, and File->Export as PDF work as expected in Safari (full HTML-rendered page) with the added features of selectable text and extractable images in the PDFs (for those memes y’all). ~Tim~ macOS Big Sur, 11.4 Safari 14.1.1

Awesome tip! These are the articles that make it worthwhile to keep visiting Rocket Yard of OWC. Thanks. BTW an application to do it is Paparazzi! (but it does not work in all cases) https://derailer.org/paparazzi

I just tried that same Apple webpage with Safari 14.1.1 in OS 11.4. Went to File > Export as PDF… and bingo! Got a nice high-res 8.2MB PDF on my desktop instantly. Image is clean, no unexpected margins.

That works! Thank you!

Huh. I just tried that in Mojave with the latest Safari (14.1.2), using this webpage for the test.

I end up with a 20.6mb file ending in .PNG format, but which will not open. It’s either “damaged” or in a format that Preview can’t open.

In most other applications, this function would be easily performed using the Print button, and then Save as PDF. It is truly unfortunate that web developers have blocked the normal Print functionality on the web.

iOS 17: How to Save Long-Form Web Articles and Other Scrollable Content to Photos

Apple in iOS 17 has added support for saving screenshots of entire webpage articles and other long-form app content to the Photos app. Keep reading to learn how it's done.

In iOS 17, Apple has extended the facility by adding a "Save to Photos" option to the Full Page screenshot interface, so now you can save scrollable content in one long vertically scrolling image as well.

• How to Take Screenshots on iPhone

Note that if the scrollable content is excessively long, the "Save to Photos" option won't appear, but most long-form web articles and notes should not pose a problem. Also, bear in mind that the option to save content as a scrollable image is only available in Apple's own stock apps such as Safari, Notes, and Maps. The following steps show you how to make use of it, using Safari as an example.

• Launch the Safari app on your iPhone or iPad.
• Navigate to the web page that you wish to save as a scrollable image file.
• A preview of the screenshot will pop up in the lower left of the display. Tap it to open up the Instant Markup interface. You'll have about five seconds before it disappears.
• Tap the Full Page tab in the upper right corner of the Markup interface.

If you want to read the content, simply zoom into it with a double-tap and scroll through it as you would do for a standard webpage.

How to Install or Save any Website as an App on iPhone using Safari

With literally millions of apps available on the App Store, you would expect that there’s an app for everything. But that’s not always the case. There are many websites that we wish had an app, but they don’t. Well, the days for wishful thinking are over. Make way for Web Apps!

Using the Safari browser on your iPhone, you can install any website as an app on your home screen. If you come across a website that doesn’t offer a dedicated app, you can simply install it as an app using the Safari browser on your iPhone and iPad. You could also replace some of your existing apps such as Facebook and Twitter with their web apps to free up space on your iPhone .

To install a website as an app, first, open the Safari browser on your iPhone. For this technique to work, you will have to open Safari. It won’t work with any other browsers, such as Chrome on iOS devices.

Enter the web address for the website you want to install as an app and tap on go. Once the site loads up, tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen.

In the share menu that opens, scroll down till you find the Add to Home Screen option. Tap on it.

On the next page, you can enter the name for the app that will display on your home screen. It will also show you the icon that will display on the home screen, as well as the link with which it will open. Tap on the Add button at the top of the screen to finish the process.

The website will then be accessible from the home screen of your iPhone. Like all other apps on your device.

For most of the apps, when you tap on the app from the home screen, it will open and work as an app independent of Safari. Some apps will still be opened as a new tab in Safari because those websites aren’t really design to be progressive web apps.

You can delete websites installed as apps like any other app on your iPhone. Tap and hold the app icon for a couple of seconds, and when the icons start to jiggle, tap on the cross button to delete the app.

Sample from The Man Who Was Thursday , by G. K. Chesterton

The suburb of Saffron Park lay on the sunset side of London, as red and ragged as a cloud of sunset. It was built of a bright brick throughout; its sky-line was fantastic, and even its ground plan was wild. It had been the outburst of a speculative builder, faintly tinged with art, who called its architecture sometimes Elizabethan and sometimes Queen Anne, apparently under the impression that the two sovereigns were identical. It was described with some justice as an artistic colony, though it never in any definable way produced any art. But although its pretensions to be an intellectual centre were a little vague, its pretensions to be a pleasant place were quite indisputable. The stranger who looked for the first time at the quaint red houses could only think how very oddly shaped the people must be who could fit in to them. Nor when he met the people was he disappointed in this respect. The place was not only pleasant, but perfect, if once he could regard it not as a deception but rather as a dream. Even if the people were not “artists,” the whole was nevertheless artistic. That young man with the long, auburn hair and the impudent face—that young man was not really a poet; but surely he was a poem. That old gentleman with the wild, white beard and the wild, white hat—that venerable humbug was not really a philosopher; but at least he was the cause of philosophy in others. That scientific gentleman with the bald, egg-like head and the bare, bird-like neck had no real right to the airs of science that he assumed. He had not discovered anything new in biology; but what biological creature could he have discovered more singular than himself? Thus, and thus only, the whole place had properly to be regarded; it had to be considered not so much as a workshop for artists, but as a frail but finished work of art. A man who stepped into its social atmosphere felt as if he had stepped into a written comedy.

More especially this attractive unreality fell upon it about nightfall, when the extravagant roofs were dark against the afterglow and the whole insane village seemed as separate as a drifting cloud. This again was more strongly true of the many nights of local festivity, when the little gardens were often illuminated, and the big Chinese lanterns glowed in the dwarfish trees like some fierce and monstrous fruit. And this was strongest of all on one particular evening, still vaguely remembered in the locality, of which the auburn-haired poet was the hero. It was not by any means the only evening of which he was the hero. On many nights those passing by his little back garden might hear his high, didactic voice laying down the law to men and particularly to women. The attitude of women in such cases was indeed one of the paradoxes of the place. Most of the women were of the kind vaguely called emancipated, and professed some protest against male supremacy. Yet these new women would always pay to a man the extravagant compliment which no ordinary woman ever pays to him, that of listening while he is talking. And Mr. Lucian Gregory, the red-haired poet, was really (in some sense) a man worth listening to, even if one only laughed at the end of it. He put the old cant of the lawlessness of art and the art of lawlessness with a certain impudent freshness which gave at least a momentary pleasure. He was helped in some degree by the arresting oddity of his appearance, which he worked, as the phrase goes, for all it was worth. His dark red hair parted in the middle was literally like a woman’s, and curved into the slow curls of a virgin in a pre-Raphaelite picture. From within this almost saintly oval, however, his face projected suddenly broad and brutal, the chin carried forward with a look of cockney contempt. This combination at once tickled and terrified the nerves of a neurotic population. He seemed like a walking blasphemy, a blend of the angel and the ape.

This particular evening, if it is remembered for nothing else, will be remembered in that place for its strange sunset. It looked like the end of the world. All the heaven seemed covered with a quite vivid and palpable plumage; you could only say that the sky was full of feathers, and of feathers that almost brushed the face. Across the great part of the dome they were grey, with the strangest tints of violet and mauve and an unnatural pink or pale green; but towards the west the whole grew past description, transparent and passionate, and the last red-hot plumes of it covered up the sun like something too good to be seen. The whole was so close about the earth, as to express nothing but a violent secrecy. The very empyrean seemed to be a secret. It expressed that splendid smallness which is the soul of local patriotism. The very sky seemed small.

I say that there are some inhabitants who may remember the evening if only by that oppressive sky. There are others who may remember it because it marked the first appearance in the place of the second poet of Saffron Park. For a long time the red-haired revolutionary had reigned without a rival; it was upon the night of the sunset that his solitude suddenly ended. The new poet, who introduced himself by the name of Gabriel Syme was a very mild-looking mortal, with a fair, pointed beard and faint, yellow hair. But an impression grew that he was less meek than he looked. He signalised his entrance by differing with the established poet, Gregory, upon the whole nature of poetry. He said that he (Syme) was poet of law, a poet of order; nay, he said he was a poet of respectability. So all the Saffron Parkers looked at him as if he had that moment fallen out of that impossible sky.

In fact, Mr. Lucian Gregory, the anarchic poet, connected the two events.

“It may well be,” he said, in his sudden lyrical manner, “it may well be on such a night of clouds and cruel colours that there is brought forth upon the earth such a portent as a respectable poet. You say you are a poet of law; I say you are a contradiction in terms. I only wonder there were not comets and earthquakes on the night you appeared in this garden.”

The man with the meek blue eyes and the pale, pointed beard endured these thunders with a certain submissive solemnity. The third party of the group, Gregory’s sister Rosamond, who had her brother’s braids of red hair, but a kindlier face underneath them, laughed with such mixture of admiration and disapproval as she gave commonly to the family oracle.

Gregory resumed in high oratorical good humour.

“An artist is identical with an anarchist,” he cried. “You might transpose the words anywhere. An anarchist is an artist. The man who throws a bomb is an artist, because he prefers a great moment to everything. He sees how much more valuable is one burst of blazing light, one peal of perfect thunder, than the mere common bodies of a few shapeless policemen. An artist disregards all governments, abolishes all conventions. The poet delights in disorder only. If it were not so, the most poetical thing in the world would be the Underground Railway.”

“So it is,” said Mr. Syme.

“Nonsense!” said Gregory, who was very rational when anyone else attempted paradox. “Why do all the clerks and navvies in the railway trains look so sad and tired, so very sad and tired? I will tell you. It is because they know that the train is going right. It is because they know that whatever place they have taken a ticket for that place they will reach. It is because after they have passed Sloane Square they know that the next station must be Victoria, and nothing but Victoria. Oh, their wild rapture! oh, their eyes like stars and their souls again in Eden, if the next station were unaccountably Baker Street!”

“It is you who are unpoetical,” replied the poet Syme. “If what you say of clerks is true, they can only be as prosaic as your poetry. The rare, strange thing is to hit the mark; the gross, obvious thing is to miss it. We feel it is epical when man with one wild arrow strikes a distant bird. Is it not also epical when man with one wild engine strikes a distant station? Chaos is dull; because in chaos the train might indeed go anywhere, to Baker Street or to Bagdad. But man is a magician, and his whole magic is in this, that he does say Victoria, and lo! it is Victoria. No, take your books of mere poetry and prose; let me read a time table, with tears of pride. Take your Byron, who commemorates the defeats of man; give me Bradshaw, who commemorates his victories. Give me Bradshaw, I say!”

“Must you go?” inquired Gregory sarcastically.

“I tell you,” went on Syme with passion, “that every time a train comes in I feel that it has broken past batteries of besiegers, and that man has won a battle against chaos. You say contemptuously that when one has left Sloane Square one must come to Victoria. I say that one might do a thousand things instead, and that whenever I really come there I have the sense of hairbreadth escape. And when I hear the guard shout out the word ‘Victoria,’ it is not an unmeaning word. It is to me the cry of a herald announcing conquest. It is to me indeed ‘Victoria;’ it is the victory of Adam.”

Gregory wagged his heavy, red head with a slow and sad smile.

“And even then,” he said, “we poets always ask the question, ‘And what is Victoria now that you have got there?’ You think Victoria is like the New Jerusalem. We know that the New Jerusalem will only be like Victoria. Yes, the poet will be discontented even in the streets of heaven. The poet is always in revolt.”

“There again,” said Syme irritably, “what is there poetical about being in revolt? You might as well say that it is poetical to be sea-sick. Being sick is a revolt. Both being sick and being rebellious may be the wholesome thing on certain desperate occasions; but I’m hanged if I can see why they are poetical. Revolt in the abstract is—revolting. It’s mere vomiting.”

The girl winced for a flash at the unpleasant word, but Syme was too hot to heed her.

“It is things going right,” he cried, “that is poetical I Our digestions, for instance, going sacredly and silently right, that is the foundation of all poetry. Yes, the most poetical thing, more poetical than the flowers, more poetical than the stars—the most poetical thing in the world is not being sick.”

“Really,” said Gregory superciliously, “the examples you choose—”

“I beg your pardon,” said Syme grimly, “I forgot we had abolished all conventions.”

For the first time a red patch appeared on Gregory’s forehead.

“You don’t expect me,” he said, “to revolutionise society on this lawn?”

Syme looked straight into his eyes and smiled sweetly.

“No, I don’t,” he said; “but I suppose that if you were serious about your anarchism, that is exactly what you would do.”

Gregory’s big bull’s eyes blinked suddenly like those of an angry lion, and one could almost fancy that his red mane rose.

“Don’t you think, then,” he said in a dangerous voice, “that I am serious about my anarchism?”

“I beg your pardon?” said Syme.

“Am I not serious about my anarchism?” cried Gregory, with knotted fists.

“My dear fellow!” said Syme, and strolled away.

With surprise, but with a curious pleasure, he found Rosamond Gregory still in his company.

“Mr. Syme,” she said, “do the people who talk like you and my brother often mean what they say? Do you mean what you say now?”

Syme smiled.

“Do you?” he asked.

“What do you mean?” asked the girl, with grave eyes.

“My dear Miss Gregory,” said Syme gently, “there are many kinds of sincerity and insincerity. When you say ‘thank you’ for the salt, do you mean what you say? No. When you say ‘the world is round,’ do you mean what you say? No. It is true, but you don’t mean it. Now, sometimes a man like your brother really finds a thing he does mean. It may be only a half-truth, quarter-truth, tenth-truth; but then he says more than he means—from sheer force of meaning it.”

She was looking at him from under level brows; her face was grave and open, and there had fallen upon it the shadow of that unreasoning responsibility which is at the bottom of the most frivolous woman, the maternal watch which is as old as the world.

“Is he really an anarchist, then?” she asked.

“Only in that sense I speak of,” replied Syme; “or if you prefer it, in that nonsense.”

She drew her broad brows together and said abruptly:

“He wouldn’t really use—bombs or that sort of thing?”

Syme broke into a great laugh, that seemed too large for his slight and somewhat dandified figure.

“Good Lord, no!” he said, “that has to be done anonymously.”

And at that the corners of her own mouth broke into a smile, and she thought with a simultaneous pleasure of Gregory’s absurdity and of his safety.

Syme strolled with her to a seat in the corner of the garden, and continued to pour out his opinions. For he was a sincere man, and in spite of his superficial airs and graces, at root a humble one. And it is always the humble man who talks too much; the proud man watches himself too closely. He defended respectability with violence and exaggeration. He grew passionate in his praise of tidiness and propriety. All the time there was a smell of lilac all round him. Once he heard very faintly in some distant street a barrel-organ begin to play, and it seemed to him that his heroic words were moving to a tiny tune from under or beyond the world.

He stared and talked at the girl’s red hair and amused face for what seemed to be a few minutes; and then, feeling that the groups in such a place should mix, rose to his feet. To his astonishment, he discovered the whole garden empty. Everyone had gone long ago, and he went himself with a rather hurried apology. He left with a sense of champagne in his head, which he could not afterwards explain. In the wild events which were to follow this girl had no part at all; he never saw her again until all his tale was over. And yet, in some indescribable way, she kept recurring like a motive in music through all his mad adventures afterwards, and the glory of her strange hair ran like a red thread through those dark and ill-drawn tapestries of the night. For what followed was so improbable, that it might well have been a dream.

When Syme went out into the starlit street, he found it for the moment empty. Then he realised (in some odd way) that the silence was rather a living silence than a dead one. Directly outside the door stood a street lamp, whose gleam gilded the leaves of the tree that bent out over the fence behind him. About a foot from the lamp-post stood a figure almost as rigid and motionless as the lamp-post itself. The tall hat and long frock coat were black; the face, in an abrupt shadow, was almost as dark. Only a fringe of fiery hair against the light, and also something aggressive in the attitude, proclaimed that it was the poet Gregory. He had something of the look of a masked bravo waiting sword in hand for his foe.

He made a sort of doubtful salute, which Syme somewhat more formally returned.

“I was waiting for you,” said Gregory. “Might I have a moment’s conversation?”

“Certainly. About what?” asked Syme in a sort of weak wonder.

Gregory struck out with his stick at the lamp-post, and then at the tree. “About this and this ,” he cried; “about order and anarchy. There is your precious order, that lean, iron lamp, ugly and barren; and there is anarchy, rich, living, reproducing itself—there is anarchy, splendid in green and gold.”

“All the same,” replied Syme patiently, “just at present you only see the tree by the light of the lamp. I wonder when you would ever see the lamp by the light of the tree.” Then after a pause he said, “But may I ask if you have been standing out here in the dark only to resume our little argument?”

“No,” cried out Gregory, in a voice that rang down the street, “I did not stand here to resume our argument, but to end it for ever.”

The silence fell again, and Syme, though he understood nothing, listened instinctively for something serious. Gregory began in a smooth voice and with a rather bewildering smile.

“Mr. Syme,” he said, “this evening you succeeded in doing something rather remarkable. You did something to me that no man born of woman has ever succeeded in doing before.”

“Indeed!”

“Now I remember,” resumed Gregory reflectively, “one other person succeeded in doing it. The captain of a penny steamer (if I remember correctly) at Southend. You have irritated me.”

“I am very sorry,” replied Syme with gravity.

“I am afraid my fury and your insult are too shocking to be wiped out even with an apology,” said Gregory very calmly. “No duel could wipe it out. If I struck you dead I could not wipe it out. There is only one way by which that insult can be erased, and that way I choose. I am going, at the possible sacrifice of my life and honour, to prove to you that you were wrong in what you said.”

“In what I said?”

“You said I was not serious about being an anarchist.”

“There are degrees of seriousness,” replied Syme. “I have never doubted that you were perfectly sincere in this sense, that you thought what you said well worth saying, that you thought a paradox might wake men up to a neglected truth.”

Gregory stared at him steadily and painfully.

“And in no other sense,” he asked, “you think me serious? You think me a flâneur who lets fall occasional truths. You do not think that in a deeper, a more deadly sense, I am serious.”

Syme struck his stick violently on the stones of the road.

“Serious!” he cried. “Good Lord! is this street serious? Are these damned Chinese lanterns serious? Is the whole caboodle serious? One comes here and talks a pack of bosh, and perhaps some sense as well, but I should think very little of a man who didn’t keep something in the background of his life that was more serious than all this talking—something more serious, whether it was religion or only drink.”

“Very well,” said Gregory, his face darkening, “you shall see something more serious than either drink or religion.”

Syme stood waiting with his usual air of mildness until Gregory again opened his lips.

“You spoke just now of having a religion. Is it really true that you have one?”

“Oh,” said Syme with a beaming smile, “we are all Catholics now.”

“Then may I ask you to swear by whatever gods or saints your religion involves that you will not reveal what I am now going to tell you to any son of Adam, and especially not to the police? Will you swear that! If you will take upon yourself this awful abnegations if you will consent to burden your soul with a vow that you should never make and a knowledge you should never dream about, I will promise you in return—”

“You will promise me in return?” inquired Syme, as the other paused.

“I will promise you a very entertaining evening.” Syme suddenly took off his hat.

“Your offer,” he said, “is far too idiotic to be declined. You say that a poet is always an anarchist. I disagree; but I hope at least that he is always a sportsman. Permit me, here and now, to swear as a Christian, and promise as a good comrade and a fellow-artist, that I will not report anything of this, whatever it is, to the police. And now, in the name of Colney Hatch, what is it?”

“I think,” said Gregory, with placid irrelevancy, “that we will call a cab.”

He gave two long whistles, and a hansom came rattling down the road. The two got into it in silence. Gregory gave through the trap the address of an obscure public-house on the Chiswick bank of the river. The cab whisked itself away again, and in it these two fantastics quitted their fantastic town.

How do I create a .url file on OS X?

I am creating a zip file and would like to include a link to a website within it so that users can double-click on the file and go straight to the website. In my research, I discovered that what I want is a .url file because it is cross-platform.

However, I can't seem to create one on a Mac. Whenever I drag a URL to my desktop, a .webloc file is created instead. This file is typically associated with Safari and isn't readable on Windows, so it won't work. Unfortunately, it's created even if I drag the URL from an alternative web browser, like Firefox.

According to this page , there is some non-trivial data within a .url file that makes it so that I can't just create one myself in a text editor without knowing what I'm doing. So how can I create a .url file on a Mac?

Following Kirk's answer, here is an small bash script for creating such files. Executing

The url-create.sh shell script is the following:

On mac, without [InternetShortcut] it always opens in Safari, while including it makes the file open with the default browser.

It is sufficient to put

In my case, without [InternetShortcut] , Safari is pulled up, but no webpage is opened. With [InternetShortcut] , it opens with the default browser.

It's also possible to drag & drop the URL from the browser (click on the symbol just left to the URL) into the finder which will create .webloc file that does the same..

Horrifying last moments of mum eaten alive by safari park tiger after coming to her daughter's rescue

Terrifying footage shows the moment a siberian tiger dragged her daughter away.

Jess Battison

Warning: This article contains content which some readers may find distressing.

The horrifying last moments of a mum were caught on camera as she went to save her daughter.

Back in 2016, the woman was driving through Beijing ’s Badaling Wildlife World with her family. As is the case with plenty of the safari-style experiences we have here in the UK , visitors get to drive their own cars around the park.

But guests are not allowed to get out of their vehicle in certain enclosures – because of course while it might be safe to be protected by the four walls of a car, just strolling round an animal’ s home is rather risky.

So, the woman signed an agreement before entering the Chinese park which stated she would not get out of her vehicle.

However, tragic footage shows the woman, whose last name is Zhao, getting out of a car and being dragged by a Siberian tiger.

She claimed she believed the document she signed was some kind of registration to enter – accusing the ticket taker of not explaining it properly.

Zhao said that as they were driving round, she started feeling carsick so decided to get out of the car.

In the video, she can be seen walking around to the other side of the family vehicle, seemingly checking if she was holding up traffic.

But then, she quickly turns around as one of the Siberian tigers leaps towards her.

Zhao tried to move away but she couldn’t match the animal’s speed which pulled her to the ground and dragged her away.

Her family were quick to run to her help, as her mum tried to save her. And unfortunately, this led to the woman being attacked by another tiger and being killed as it went to eat her alive.

After the tragedy, the Yanqing district government confirmed there had been an incident at Badaling Wildlife World.

It was also added that an injured person, assumed to be Zhao, was receiving treatment.

She later filed a lawsuit against the Beijing park with the claim she hadn’t been properly informed of the dangers and that a nearby park official had failed to come to the family’s rescue.

But authorities in the Yanqing District later published a report stating it was not an ‘industry security accident’. AKA, the park was not responsible.

Instead, it was stated that this fatal attack occurred due to the visitors involved not following the wildlife park’s rules for guests.

The idea of a South African safari often conjures up images of five-star lodges and luxury game drives — but a holiday in the bush doesn't have to be out of reach for travelers on a tighter budget.

According to a data analysis from Go2Africa , the average traveler heads on South African safaris with a medium-high budget, meaning they spend $5,500 to $6,000 on a trip, an increase from last year.

But, on a recent trip, I found that I was able to have an incredible two-week safari trip in Kruger National Park for about $50 a day.

Here's how I did it and how travelers can save money when planning their safari.

I saved by buying an annual pass

The biggest savings at Kruger National Park can come from buying a Wild Card, an annual pass that gives you a year of access to 80+ parks in southern Africa, including Kruger.

The Wild Card is discounted for South Africans but it cost me 3,780 rands, or about $200, as a foreigner.

Without a Wild Card, I would've had to pay over 486 rands a day to visit Kruger, meaning this pass pays for itself in just over a week.

Overall, my pass came to about 270 rands a day for the two-week trip.

We also stayed in one of Kruger's many rest camps

One of the most immersive ways to experience Kruger is by camping in the South African bush. We saw elephants near our camp and woke up to the sounds of warthogs and hyenas in the distance.

We live in South Africa , so it was easy enough to bring our own camping gear, though travelers can rent a tent, sleeping bags, chairs, and cooking basics from nearby rental companies for a few thousand rands for two weeks.

Kruger National Park has a range of rest camps for different budgets and preferences, whether you prefer to use your own tent or stay in a bungalow with your own kitchen and bathroom.

Prices also vary depending on the season, so it's wise to avoid really busy months, like September and December. I found that around mid-January to mid-March, two people can camp at Punda Maria, one of Kruger's cheapest camping options, for just 285 rands a night. During high season, prices go up by about 100 rands per night.

My husband and I visited during a less busy season. We camped at Maroela Satellite Camp and Crocodile Bridge Rest Camp for 331 to 349 rands a night.

Cooking our own food saved us money …

We chose to prepare our own meals and braai (a type of South African barbecue) beneath the stars.

Fortunately, most campsites have plug points, braai stands, shared bathrooms, shared kitchens, and shops selling everything you need to braai.

The park also has restaurants and coffee shops scattered throughout it, which is helpful for anyone who wants to purchase food and drinks without leaving the property.

But there's nothing quite like braaiing beneath the stars, watching for the occasional hyena along the fence line.

… and so did doing a self-driving safari

If you don't have your own car, you can rent a sedan for just over 4,000 rands for two weeks. Fortunately, though, there are enough tarred roads in Kruger that you don't need a special 4x4 to enjoy the park.

We ended up self-driving our own car in Kruger National Park, which allowed us to choose our own adventure and be our own guide.

Rest camps have sighting boards on which visitors pin their major animal sightings from that day and the previous day. This makes it easy to follow trends and choose where to search first. There's also an app where visitors post their sightings.

On our last self-drive safari in Kruger, we saw cheetahs and all the Big Five (leopard, elephant, rhino, lion, and African buffalo).

Overall, our trip was affordable and dreamy

We saved money throughout our trip and managed to go on a two-week safari in Kruger National Park for just under $50 a day per person.

This price includes two Wild Cards, petrol for our vehicle, and our camping fees and expenses — and our trip was well worth it.

Watch: A single trail takes hikers to 10 waterfalls near Portland, Oregon — and you can walk it in less than a day
