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

697 outside the source tree.
698 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
699 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.

737 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
738 accurately what --convert-links does.
740 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
742 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
743 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
745 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
747 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
748 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
749 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
751 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
753 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
754 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
756 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
758 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
759 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
760 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
761 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
762 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
763 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
765 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
767 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
768 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
769 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
770 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
771 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
772 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
773 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
774 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
776 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
778 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
779 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
780 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
783 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
785 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
786 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
787 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
789 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
791 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
792 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
793 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
794 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
796 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
798 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
799 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
800 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
801 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
802 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
804 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
805 automatic manpage generation.
807 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
809 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
810 correction to the description of --continue.
812 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
814 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
815 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
817 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
819 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
821 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
822 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
823 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
824 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
825 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
826 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
828 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
829 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
830 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
832 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
833 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
834 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
835 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
837 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
839 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
840 but in the current build dir.
842 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
844 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
847 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
849 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
850 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
851 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
853 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
855 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
857 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
859 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
861 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
863 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
864 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
867 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
869 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
871 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
873 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
875 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
877 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
879 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
881 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
883 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
885 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
886 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
887 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
889 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
891 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
893 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
895 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
896 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
897 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
898 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
899 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
901 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
903 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
905 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
907 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
908 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
910 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
912 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
913 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
915 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
916 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
918 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
919 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
921 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
923 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
924 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
925 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
926 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
927 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
928 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
929 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
931 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
933 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
934 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
936 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
938 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
939 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
941 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
943 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
945 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
947 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
948 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
950 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
951 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
952 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
954 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
955 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
956 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
957 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
959 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
961 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
962 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
963 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
964 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
965 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
967 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
969 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
970 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
971 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
974 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
976 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
977 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
978 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
979 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
980 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
981 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
982 ignore_tags commands.
984 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
986 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
988 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
990 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
992 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
994 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
995 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
997 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
999 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1000 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1001 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1003 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1005 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1006 --backup-converted option.
1007 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
1009 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
