Offline mode

[hoijui]

When supplying a switch, e.g. --offline, mlc would not try to access anything outside the local machine.
Might this also need a new, neutral result state?

This can be useful when working off-grid, and still wanting at least a preliminary (very fast) check of the docu, before committing.

It might only check local links, or use a cache of earlier checked links.

Priority: low

I already added a --no-web-links option to mlc. Is this what you want? Actually I do prefer the much simpler arg --offline. Maybe I change it and keep the other as deprecated?

[hoijui]

doh! :D
yes of course, that is what I meant, thanks. :-)

Because I don't want to introduce a breaking change, I will keep --no-web-link for now
