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

641 * wget.texi (Proxies): Fix typo.
642 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
643 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
644 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
646 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
648 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
649 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
651 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
653 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
656 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
658 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
660 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
662 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
663 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
665 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
667 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
668 non-interactive in all cases.
670 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
672 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
673 running mkinstalldirs.
675 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
677 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
678 outside the source tree.
679 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
680 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
682 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
684 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
686 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
688 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
690 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
692 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
693 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
695 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
697 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
699 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
701 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.

705 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
707 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
709 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
711 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
713 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
716 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
718 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
719 accurately what --convert-links does.
721 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
723 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
724 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
726 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
728 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
729 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
730 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
732 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
734 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
735 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
737 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
739 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
740 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
741 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
742 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
743 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
744 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
746 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
748 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
749 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
750 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
751 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
752 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
753 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
754 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
755 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
757 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
759 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
760 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
761 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
764 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
766 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
767 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
768 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
770 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
772 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
773 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
774 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
775 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
777 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
779 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
780 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
781 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
782 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
783 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
785 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
786 automatic manpage generation.
788 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
790 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
791 correction to the description of --continue.
793 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
795 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
796 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
798 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
800 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
802 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
803 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
804 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
805 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
806 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
807 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
809 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
810 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
811 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
813 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
814 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
815 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
816 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
818 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
820 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
821 but in the current build dir.
823 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
825 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
828 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
830 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
831 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
832 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
834 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
836 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
838 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
840 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
842 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
844 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
845 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
848 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
850 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
852 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
854 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
856 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
858 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
860 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
862 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
864 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
866 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
867 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
868 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
870 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
872 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
874 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
876 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
877 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
878 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
879 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
880 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
882 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
884 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
886 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
888 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
889 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
891 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
893 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
894 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
896 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
897 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
899 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
900 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
902 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
904 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
905 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
906 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
907 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
908 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
909 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
910 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
912 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
914 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
915 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
917 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
919 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
920 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
922 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
924 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
926 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
928 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
929 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
931 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
932 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
933 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
935 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
936 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
937 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
938 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
940 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
942 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
943 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
944 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
945 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
946 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
948 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
950 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
951 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
952 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
955 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
957 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
958 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
959 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
960 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
961 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
962 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
963 ignore_tags commands.
965 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
967 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
969 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
971 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
973 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
975 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
976 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
978 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
980 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
981 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
982 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
984 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
986 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
987 --backup-converted option.
988 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
990 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
