Marlaina:

Spyder is made to grab a group of links you set, so you don't have to open
each page yourself.  In the manual it says you are to set the end link
first, then the first, since the program counts from the bottom of the page.
The pages of all the links you've grouped are saved into a text file, so
it's very convenient to take a stack of web pages with you, such as from a
news sight, etc.

Ask more questions, if you have them.
