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

673 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
674 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
675 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
677 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
679 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
680 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
682 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
684 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

696 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
698 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
699 non-interactive in all cases.
701 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
703 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
704 running mkinstalldirs.
706 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
708 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
709 outside the source tree.
710 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
711 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
713 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
715 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

724 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
726 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
728 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
730 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
732 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.

742 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
744 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
747 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
749 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
750 accurately what --convert-links does.
752 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
754 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
755 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
757 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
759 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
760 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
761 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
763 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
765 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
766 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
768 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
770 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
771 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
772 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
773 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
774 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
775 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
777 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
779 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
780 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
781 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
782 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
783 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
784 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
785 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
786 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
788 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
790 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
791 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
792 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
795 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
797 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
798 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
799 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
801 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
803 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
804 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
805 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
806 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
808 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
810 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
811 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
812 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
813 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
814 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
816 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
817 automatic manpage generation.
819 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
821 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
822 correction to the description of --continue.
824 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
826 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
827 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
829 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
831 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
833 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
834 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
835 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
836 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
837 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
838 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
840 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
841 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
842 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
844 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
845 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
846 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
847 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
849 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
851 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
852 but in the current build dir.
854 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
856 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
859 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
861 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
862 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
863 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
865 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
867 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
869 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
871 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
873 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
875 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
876 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
879 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
881 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
883 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
885 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
887 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
889 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
891 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
893 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
895 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
897 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
898 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
899 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
901 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
903 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
905 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
907 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
908 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
909 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
910 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
911 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
913 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
915 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
917 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
919 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
920 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
922 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
924 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
925 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
927 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
928 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
930 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
931 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
933 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
935 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
936 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
937 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
938 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
939 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
940 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
941 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
943 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
945 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
946 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
948 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
950 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
951 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
953 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
955 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
957 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
959 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
960 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
962 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
963 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
964 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
966 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
967 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
968 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
969 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
971 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
973 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
974 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
975 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
976 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
977 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
979 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
981 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
982 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
983 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
986 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
988 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
989 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
990 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
991 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
992 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
993 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
994 ignore_tags commands.
996 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
998 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
1000 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
1002 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
1004 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1006 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1007 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1009 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1011 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1012 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1013 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1015 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1017 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1018 --backup-converted option.
1019 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
