1 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
3 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
5 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
7 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
9 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
11 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
13 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
15 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
17 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
19 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
22 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
24 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
25 accurately what --convert-links does.
27 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
29 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
30 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
32 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
34 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
35 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
36 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
38 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
40 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
41 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
43 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
45 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
46 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
47 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
48 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
49 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
50 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
52 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
54 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
55 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
56 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
57 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
58 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
59 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
60 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
61 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
63 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
65 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
66 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
67 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
70 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
72 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
73 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
74 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
76 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
78 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
79 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
80 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
81 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
83 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
85 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
86 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
87 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
88 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
89 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
91 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
92 automatic manpage generation.
94 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
96 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
97 correction to the description of --continue.
99 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
101 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
102 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
104 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
106 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
108 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
109 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
110 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
111 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
112 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
113 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
115 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
116 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
117 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
119 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
120 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
121 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
122 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
124 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
126 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
127 but in the current build dir.
129 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
131 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
134 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
136 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
137 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
138 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
140 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
142 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
144 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
146 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
148 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
150 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
151 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
154 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
156 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
158 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
160 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
162 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
164 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
166 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
168 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
170 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
172 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
173 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
174 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
176 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
178 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
180 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
182 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
183 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
184 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
185 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
186 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
188 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
190 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
192 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
194 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
195 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
197 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
199 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
200 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
202 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
203 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
205 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
206 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
208 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
210 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
211 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
212 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
213 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
214 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
215 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
216 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
218 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
220 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
221 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
223 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
225 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
226 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
228 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
230 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
232 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
234 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
235 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
237 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
238 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
239 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
241 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
242 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
243 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
244 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
246 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
248 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
249 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
250 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
251 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
252 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
254 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
256 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
257 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
258 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
261 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
263 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
264 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
265 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
266 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
267 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
268 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
269 ignore_tags commands.
271 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
273 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
275 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
277 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
279 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
281 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
282 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
284 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
286 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
287 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
288 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
290 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
292 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
293 --backup-converted option.
294 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
296 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
