241 response to POST is "technically disallowed", which I cannot find
242 in rfc2616 nor in rfc1945. Even if that were technically the

623 2001-11-22 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
625 * wget.texi (Proxies): Fix typo.
626 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
627 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
628 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
630 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
632 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
633 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
635 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
637 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
640 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
642 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
644 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
646 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
647 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
649 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
651 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
652 non-interactive in all cases.
654 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
656 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
657 running mkinstalldirs.
659 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
661 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
662 outside the source tree.
663 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
664 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
666 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
668 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
670 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
672 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
674 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
676 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
677 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
679 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
681 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
683 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
685 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
687 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
689 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
691 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
693 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
695 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
697 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
700 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
702 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
703 accurately what --convert-links does.
705 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
707 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
708 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
710 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
712 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
713 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
714 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
716 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
718 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
719 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
721 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
723 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
724 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
725 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
726 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
727 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
728 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
730 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
732 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
733 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
734 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
735 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
736 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
737 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
738 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
739 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
741 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
743 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
744 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
745 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
748 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
750 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
751 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
752 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
754 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
756 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
757 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
758 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
759 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
761 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
763 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
764 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
765 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
766 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
767 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
769 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
770 automatic manpage generation.
772 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
774 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
775 correction to the description of --continue.
777 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
779 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
780 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
782 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
784 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
786 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
787 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
788 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
789 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
790 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
791 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
793 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
794 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
795 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
797 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
798 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
799 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
800 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
802 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
804 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
805 but in the current build dir.
807 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
809 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
812 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
814 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
815 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
816 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
818 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
820 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
822 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
824 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
826 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
828 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
829 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
832 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
834 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
836 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
838 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
840 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
842 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
844 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
846 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
848 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
850 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
851 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
852 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
854 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
856 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
858 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
860 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
861 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
862 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
863 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
864 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
866 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
868 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
870 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
872 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
873 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
875 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
877 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
878 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
880 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
881 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
883 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
884 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
886 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
888 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
889 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
890 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
891 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
892 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
893 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
894 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
896 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
898 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
899 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
901 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
903 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
904 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
906 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
908 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
910 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
912 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
913 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
915 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
916 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
917 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
919 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
920 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
921 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
922 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
924 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
926 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
927 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
928 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
929 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
930 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
932 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
934 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
935 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
936 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
939 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
941 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
942 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
943 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
944 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
945 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
946 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
947 ignore_tags commands.
949 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
951 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
953 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
955 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
957 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
959 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
960 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
962 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
964 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
965 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
966 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
968 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
970 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
971 --backup-converted option.
972 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
974 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
