That dependency is now gone, thank you for the review

Everything has its limits

Could you please open issue on github providing the output that you get in the terminal?

I have closed my github account since the takeover occured.

The important part of what he said was "providing the output that you get in the terminal". Simply stating "I got an error" and expecting the developer(s) to use clairvoyance to glean further detail is far from a helpful way to report a problem. Perhaps dropping the details in a pastebin site and linking to that would be a possible alternative? Or just including the error message here if it is short enough, though HN shouldn't really be used as a tech support channel.

It sounds like a great add-on, I have to check it out to see what it does to remote assets and how it works with asynchronously loaded assets.

I'd say since monolith produces a plaintext document it lets you edit things easier if needed.

JS can be removed from the final document using the -j flag. HTML Files can also be grepped for content, unlike PDFs.

The compile time is rather long as well, I'm looking into ways of reducing the amount of dependencies.

Thank you for the kind words.

It will evolve into a reliable tool in a couple weeks and it should eventually work for embedding everything, including things like web fonts and @url()'s within CSS. If anything doesn't work, please open an issue, I have plenty of time to work on it.

Which license would you recommend to release this software under to reach the broad adoption yet permissive terms, if not the Unlicense?

I honestly don't know. That's why the question :-) Is CC0 good for software? It seems to be a bit more complete from a non-US view point, but I don't know if there are lurking situations. Possibly MIT is better -- it's pretty darn permissive. I'm really just soliciting opinions.

Yes, CC0 is the only Creative Commons License suitable for software. It's endorsed by the Free Software Foundation [1], although not the Open Source Initiative. I use it for everything that I don't want to copyleft.

It is done, option -i in the latest version (2.0.3) now replaces all src="..." attributes with src="<data URL for a transparent PNG pixel>" within IMG tags.

CSS imports are covered by converting .css files into data URLs, later I will parse those and embed resources found within stylesheets as well.
