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

683 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
684 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
685 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
687 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
689 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
690 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
692 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
694 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
697 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

701 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
703 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing

706 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
708 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
709 non-interactive in all cases.
711 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
713 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
714 running mkinstalldirs.
716 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
718 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
719 outside the source tree.
720 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
721 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
723 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
725 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

734 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
736 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
738 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
740 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

752 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
754 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
757 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
759 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
760 accurately what --convert-links does.
762 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
764 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
765 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
767 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
769 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
770 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
771 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
773 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
775 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
776 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
778 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
780 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
781 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
782 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
783 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
784 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
785 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
787 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
789 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
790 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
791 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
792 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
793 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
794 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
795 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
796 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
798 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
800 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
801 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
802 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
805 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
807 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
808 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
809 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
811 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
813 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
814 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
815 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
816 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
818 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
820 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
821 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
822 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
823 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
824 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
826 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
827 automatic manpage generation.
829 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
831 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
832 correction to the description of --continue.
834 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
836 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
837 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
839 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
841 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
843 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
844 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
845 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
846 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
847 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
848 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
850 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
851 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
852 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
854 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
855 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
856 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
857 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
859 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
861 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
862 but in the current build dir.
864 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
866 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
869 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
871 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
872 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
873 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
875 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
877 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
879 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
881 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
883 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
885 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
886 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
889 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
891 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
893 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
895 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
897 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
899 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
901 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
903 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
905 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
907 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
908 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
909 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
911 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
913 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
915 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
917 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
918 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
919 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
920 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
921 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
923 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
925 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
927 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
929 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
930 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
932 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
934 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
935 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
937 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
938 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
940 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
941 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
943 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
945 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
946 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
947 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
948 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
949 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
950 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
951 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
953 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
955 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
956 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
958 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
960 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
961 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
963 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
965 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
967 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
969 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
970 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
972 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
973 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
974 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
976 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
977 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
978 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
979 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
981 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
983 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
984 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
985 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
986 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
987 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
989 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
991 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
992 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
993 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
996 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
998 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
999 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1000 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1001 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1002 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1003 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1004 ignore_tags commands.
1006 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1008 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
1010 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
1012 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
1014 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1016 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1017 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1019 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1021 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1022 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1023 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1025 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1027 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1028 --backup-converted option.
1029 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
