With Google Chrome you can save a page as an MHTML file. If you've downloaded many pages and they end up in the same folder then it's a dull job to sort them out especially if you have to do this every day. MHTML sorter can do this for you. There's also a version for Windows, tested on XP and Windows 10. This program is a companion for my next program, MHTML converter, which aims to convert them to HTML that you can view on OS 9.
-
I abandoned the MHTML converter project. It had to be configured with so many regular expressions that I'm sure that nobody will ever use this program. It's easier to make a list of the URLs of your MHTML files and download them with a different browser.
-
I rewrote this program in C++.
Instead of complex configuration I follow a simple scheme to rename the files.
I replace & with & in the URL.
The new filename is (CRC of the URL)-(length of the URL).(extension that matches the MIME)
The links are files instead of paths.
You can merge folders and the links will still work.
I tried this with a complex page with frames, fonts, SVG in XML and so on.
When it's opened in Chrome it's just like the original.
-
I fixed 3 problems with this program:
- I found a URL of 1713 bytes but it was limited to 1020. I changed this into 4096.
- It works now with titles in UTF-8.
- It works now with parts like:

Here's an example of all the things that it understands:

I improved Convert MHTML. I used it for several months without issues.
-
It can now convert MHTML files that were saved by Google Chrome for Android as well as Windows because it can now decode Base64 and quoted-printable. It will now accept ".mht" extensions too instead of only ".mhtml". I improved the error messages.
