For my offline coding needs, I've been using the downloadable STL documentation from SGI. Unfortunately it was last edited in 1999, and doesn't cover any of the TR1.

It's easy enough to find online references for TR1, but can anybody recommend an easily downloadable TR1 reference for working offline? In HTML?

I've downloaded Boost's docs, but I'm not super-happy with this solution. It feels klunky to be jumping around the different sub-libraries of Boost that make up its TR1 implementation, such as boost/unordered/ for <unordered_set> and boost/shared_ptr/ for <memory>, etc. It also doesn't cover the plain old STL, whereas I'd prefer a single reference for both std:: and std::tr1.

I also tried looking at GNU's libstd++ docs, but they didn't seem to be meant for human consumption.

This may end up effectively being a wget question, as in "what flags do I feed to wget to download all of MSDN's online TR1 docs (and nothing else)".

You can just read TR1 itself, here. (PDF Link, 1.4 MB)

Thanks; it's the only option so far, but I'm still looking for more of a quick reference in html rather than a monolithic spec in PDF.

The stand-alone MSDN library is a free download these days.

And it also comes with Visual Studio

Whoops, I forgot to specify that I've got a Linux machine, so I can't run the .exe-based installer used by this download. It's also a 2GB download... If I find a windows box, I may still try this, but I'm holding out for now for something more lightweight and cross-platform.
