1 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
3 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
5 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
7 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
9 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
11 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
14 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
16 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
17 accurately what --convert-links does.
19 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
21 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
22 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
24 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
26 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
27 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
28 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
30 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
32 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
33 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
35 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
37 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
38 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
39 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
40 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
41 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
42 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
44 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
46 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
47 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
48 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
49 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
50 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
51 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
52 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
53 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
55 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
57 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
58 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
59 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
62 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
64 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
65 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
66 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
68 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
70 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
71 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
72 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
73 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
75 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
77 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
78 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
79 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
80 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
81 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
83 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
84 automatic manpage generation.
86 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
88 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
89 correction to the description of --continue.
91 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
93 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
94 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
96 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
98 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
100 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
101 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
102 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
103 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
104 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
105 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
107 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
108 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
109 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
111 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
112 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
113 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
114 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
116 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
118 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
119 but in the current build dir.
121 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
123 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
126 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
128 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
129 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
130 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
132 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
134 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
136 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
138 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
140 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
142 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
143 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
146 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
148 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
150 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
152 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
154 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
156 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
158 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
160 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
162 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
164 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
165 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
166 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
168 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
170 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
172 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
174 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
175 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
176 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
177 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
178 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
180 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
182 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
184 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
186 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
187 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
189 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
191 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
192 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
194 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
195 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
197 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
198 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
200 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
202 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
203 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
204 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
205 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
206 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
207 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
208 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
210 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
212 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
213 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
215 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
217 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
218 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
220 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
222 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
224 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
226 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
227 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
229 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
230 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
231 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
233 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
234 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
235 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
236 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
238 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
240 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
241 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
242 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
243 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
244 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
246 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
248 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
249 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
250 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
253 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
255 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
256 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
257 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
258 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
259 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
260 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
261 ignore_tags commands.
263 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
265 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
267 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
269 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
271 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
273 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
274 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
276 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
278 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
279 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
280 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
282 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
284 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
285 --backup-converted option.
286 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
288 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
