+Web Archive CLI
+===============
+
+Simple Python CLI to archive whole websites to the Web Archive via a `sitemap.xml` file.
+
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+Create a fresh Python virtual env:
+
+```
+python3 -m venv venv
+```
+
+and activate it:
+
+```
+. venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+and install the dependencies:
+
+```
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+Activate the Python virtual env:
+
+```
+. venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+Convert a `sitemap.xml` file to a plain list of URLs:
+
+```
+python sitemap_to_urllist.py sitemap_example.org_2023-01-01.xml
+```
+
+Push all URLs to the web archive:
+
+```
+python do_archive.py urls_example.org_2023-01-01.txt
+```
+
+
+Dependencies
+------------
+
+The archive script is based on the `savepagenow` Python package:
+
+* https://pypi.org/project/savepagenow/
+* https://github.com/palewire/savepagenow
+
+
+To archive a single URL only, the `savepagenow` CLI can be used directly:
