65 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
67 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
69 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
70 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
72 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
74 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

89 non-interactive in all cases.
91 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
93 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
94 running mkinstalldirs.
96 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
98 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
99 outside the source tree.
100 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
101 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.

139 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
140 accurately what --convert-links does.
142 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
144 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
145 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
147 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
149 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
150 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
151 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
153 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
155 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
156 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
158 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
160 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
161 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
162 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
163 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
164 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
165 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
167 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
169 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
170 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
171 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
172 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
173 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
174 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
175 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
176 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
178 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
180 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
181 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
182 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
185 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
187 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
188 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
189 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
191 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
193 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
194 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
195 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
196 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
198 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
200 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
201 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
202 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
203 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
204 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
206 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
207 automatic manpage generation.
209 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
211 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
212 correction to the description of --continue.
214 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
216 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
217 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
219 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
221 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
223 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
224 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
225 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
226 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
227 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
228 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
230 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
231 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
232 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
234 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
235 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
236 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
237 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
239 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
241 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
242 but in the current build dir.
244 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
246 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
249 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
251 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
252 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
253 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
255 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
257 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
259 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
261 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
263 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
265 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
266 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
269 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
271 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
273 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
275 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
277 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
279 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
281 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
283 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
285 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
287 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
288 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
289 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
291 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
293 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
295 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
297 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
298 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
299 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
300 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
301 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
303 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
305 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
307 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
309 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
310 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
312 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
314 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
315 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
317 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
318 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
320 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
321 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
323 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
325 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
326 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
327 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
328 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
329 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
330 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
331 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
333 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
335 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
336 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
338 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
340 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
341 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
343 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
345 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
347 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
349 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
350 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
352 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
353 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
354 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
356 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
357 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
358 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
359 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
361 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
363 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
364 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
365 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
366 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
367 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
369 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
371 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
372 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
373 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
376 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
378 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
379 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
380 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
381 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
382 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
383 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
384 ignore_tags commands.
386 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
388 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
390 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
392 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
394 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
396 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
397 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
399 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
401 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
402 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
403 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
405 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
407 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
408 --backup-converted option.
409 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
411 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
