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

648 * wget.texi (Proxies): Fix typo.
649 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
650 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
651 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
653 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
655 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
656 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
658 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
660 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
663 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
665 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
667 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
669 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
670 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
672 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
674 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
675 non-interactive in all cases.
677 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
679 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
680 running mkinstalldirs.
682 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
684 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
685 outside the source tree.
686 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
687 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
689 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
691 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
693 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
695 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
697 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
699 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
700 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
702 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
704 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
706 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
708 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
710 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
712 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
714 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
716 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
718 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
720 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
723 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
725 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
726 accurately what --convert-links does.
728 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
730 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
731 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
733 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
735 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
736 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
737 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
739 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
741 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
742 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
744 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
746 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
747 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
748 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
749 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
750 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
751 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
753 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
755 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
756 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
757 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
758 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
759 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
760 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
761 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
762 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
764 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
766 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
767 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
768 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
771 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
773 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
774 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
775 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
777 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
779 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
780 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
781 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
782 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
784 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
786 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
787 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
788 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
789 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
790 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
792 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
793 automatic manpage generation.
795 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
797 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
798 correction to the description of --continue.
800 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
802 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
803 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
805 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
807 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
809 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
810 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
811 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
812 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
813 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
814 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
816 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
817 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
818 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
820 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
821 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
822 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
823 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
825 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
827 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
828 but in the current build dir.
830 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
832 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
835 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
837 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
838 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
839 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
841 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
843 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
845 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
847 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
849 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
851 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
852 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
855 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
857 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
859 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
861 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
863 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
865 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
867 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
869 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
871 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
873 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
874 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
875 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
877 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
879 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
881 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
883 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
884 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
885 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
886 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
887 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
889 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
891 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
893 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
895 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
896 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
898 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
900 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
901 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
903 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
904 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
906 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
907 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
909 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
911 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
912 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
913 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
914 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
915 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
916 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
917 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
919 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
921 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
922 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
924 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
926 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
927 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
929 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
931 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
933 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
935 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
936 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
938 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
939 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
940 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
942 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
943 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
944 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
945 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
947 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
949 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
950 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
951 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
952 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
953 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
955 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
957 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
958 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
959 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
962 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
964 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
965 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
966 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
967 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
968 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
969 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
970 ignore_tags commands.
972 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
974 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
976 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
978 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
980 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
982 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
983 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
985 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
987 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
988 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
989 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
991 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
993 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
994 --backup-converted option.
995 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
997 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
