-@cindex symbolic links, retrieving
-@item --retr-symlinks
-Usually, when retrieving @sc{ftp} directories recursively and a symbolic
-link is encountered, the linked-to file is not downloaded. Instead, a
-matching symbolic link is created on the local filesystem. The
-pointed-to file will not be downloaded unless this recursive retrieval
-would have encountered it separately and downloaded it anyway.
-
-When @samp{--retr-symlinks} is specified, however, symbolic links are
-traversed and the pointed-to files are retrieved. At this time, this
-option does not cause Wget to traverse symlinks to directories and
-recurse through them, but in the future it should be enhanced to do
-this.
-
-Note that when retrieving a file (not a directory) because it was
-specified on the commandline, rather than because it was recursed to,
-this option has no effect. Symbolic links are always traversed in this
-case.
+@cindex .listing files, removing
+@item -nr
+@itemx --dont-remove-listing
+Don't remove the temporary @file{.listing} files generated by @sc{ftp}
+retrievals. Normally, these files contain the raw directory listings
+received from @sc{ftp} servers. Not removing them can be useful to
+access the full remote file list when running a mirror, or for debugging
+purposes.
