Look at one of those files in a text editor, where you can see the
source code (I would think there'd be one in the bluefish application,
to let you edit in the raw).  Where you see href= attributes, they point
to other files (pages, images, etc.), and you can find out filepaths and
filenames from there.

There are various website downloading tools, that would let you download
your entire website, automatically following those links for you.

e.g. wget (If I rememeber correctly.)

"filezilla" supports at least two protocols (FTP and SFTP).

I am unfamiliar with BlueFish, so can't really advise on using *it*
properly.

Are you working with a free webhost, but the way?  They may only offer
you limited access methods.
