How can I download all posts from a user?

[Lavender]

I'm interested in a way to download all posts from a user (not me). This way, I would like to search one large document by date of post or by keywords.

You'll need to web scrap. Shouldn't be too hard, you can probably get by with file_get_contents and splitting strings

I could write a scraper and store the posts in e.g. a XML file.

PM me if you're interested.

I am familiar with the terms Python, XML, and web scraping, but I have not actually used any of them. Any suggestions on where to start?

There's a difference between being familiar with the terms and being able to do it.
Basically your options are to either use this as a project to learn a bit about programming, or pay someone else to do it for you.
