3 * wget.texi (Proxies): Fix typo.
4 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
5 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
6 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
8 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
10 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
11 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
13 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
15 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
18 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
20 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
22 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
24 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
25 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
27 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
29 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
30 non-interactive in all cases.
32 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
34 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
35 running mkinstalldirs.
37 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
39 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
40 outside the source tree.
41 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
42 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
44 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
46 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
48 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
50 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
52 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
54 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
55 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
57 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
59 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
61 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
63 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
65 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
67 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
69 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
71 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
73 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
75 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
78 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
80 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
81 accurately what --convert-links does.
83 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
85 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
86 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
88 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
90 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
91 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
92 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
94 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
96 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
97 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
99 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
101 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
102 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
103 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
104 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
105 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
106 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
108 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
110 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
111 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
112 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
113 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
114 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
115 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
116 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
117 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
119 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
121 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
122 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
123 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
126 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
128 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
129 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
130 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
132 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
134 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
135 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
136 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
137 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
139 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
141 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
142 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
143 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
144 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
145 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
147 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
148 automatic manpage generation.
150 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
152 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
153 correction to the description of --continue.
155 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
157 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
158 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
160 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
162 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
164 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
165 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
166 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
167 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
168 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
169 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
171 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
172 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
173 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
175 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
176 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
177 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
178 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
180 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
182 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
183 but in the current build dir.
185 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
187 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
190 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
192 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
193 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
194 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
196 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
198 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
200 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
202 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
204 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
206 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
207 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
210 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
212 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
214 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
216 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
218 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
220 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
222 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
224 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
226 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
228 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
229 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
230 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
232 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
234 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
236 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
238 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
239 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
240 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
241 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
242 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
244 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
246 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
248 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
250 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
251 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
253 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
255 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
256 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
258 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
259 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
261 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
262 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
264 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
266 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
267 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
268 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
269 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
270 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
271 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
272 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
274 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
276 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
277 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
279 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
281 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
282 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
284 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
286 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
288 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
290 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
291 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
293 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
294 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
295 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
297 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
298 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
299 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
300 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
302 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
304 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
305 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
306 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
307 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
308 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
310 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
312 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
313 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
314 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
317 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
319 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
320 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
321 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
322 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
323 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
324 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
325 ignore_tags commands.
327 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
329 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
331 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
333 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
335 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
337 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
338 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
340 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
342 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
343 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
344 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
346 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
348 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
349 --backup-converted option.
350 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
352 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
