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

677 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
678 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
679 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
681 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
683 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
684 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
686 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
688 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

700 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
702 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
703 non-interactive in all cases.
705 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
707 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
708 running mkinstalldirs.
710 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
712 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
713 outside the source tree.
714 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
715 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
717 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
719 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

728 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
730 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
732 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
734 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
736 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.

744 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
746 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
748 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
751 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
753 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
754 accurately what --convert-links does.
756 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
758 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
759 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
761 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
763 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
764 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
765 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
767 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
769 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
770 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
772 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
774 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
775 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
776 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
777 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
778 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
779 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
781 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
783 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
784 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
785 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
786 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
787 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
788 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
789 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
790 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
792 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
794 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
795 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
796 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
799 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
801 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
802 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
803 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
805 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
807 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
808 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
809 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
810 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
812 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
814 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
815 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
816 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
817 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
818 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
820 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
821 automatic manpage generation.
823 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
825 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
826 correction to the description of --continue.
828 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
830 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
831 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
833 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
835 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
837 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
838 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
839 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
840 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
841 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
842 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
844 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
845 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
846 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
848 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
849 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
850 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
851 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
853 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
855 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
856 but in the current build dir.
858 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
860 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
863 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
865 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
866 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
867 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
869 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
871 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
873 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
875 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
877 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
879 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
880 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
883 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
885 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
887 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
889 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
891 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
893 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
895 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
897 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
899 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
901 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
902 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
903 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
905 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
907 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
909 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
911 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
912 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
913 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
914 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
915 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
917 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
919 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
921 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
923 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
924 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
926 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
928 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
929 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
931 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
932 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
934 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
935 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
937 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
939 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
940 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
941 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
942 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
943 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
944 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
945 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
947 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
949 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
950 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
952 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
954 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
955 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
957 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
959 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
961 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
963 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
964 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
966 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
967 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
968 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
970 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
971 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
972 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
973 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
975 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
977 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
978 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
979 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
980 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
981 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
983 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
985 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
986 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
987 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
990 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
992 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
993 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
994 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
995 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
996 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
997 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
998 ignore_tags commands.
1000 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1002 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
1004 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
1006 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
1008 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1010 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1011 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1013 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1015 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1016 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1017 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1019 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1021 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1022 --backup-converted option.
1023 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
