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

720 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
722 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
724 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
725 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
727 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
729 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

744 non-interactive in all cases.
746 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
748 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
749 running mkinstalldirs.
751 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
753 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
754 outside the source tree.
755 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
756 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.

792 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
794 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
795 accurately what --convert-links does.
797 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
799 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
800 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
802 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
804 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
805 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
806 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
808 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
810 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
811 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
813 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
815 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
816 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
817 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
818 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
819 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
820 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
822 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
824 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
825 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
826 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
827 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
828 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
829 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
830 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
831 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
833 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
835 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
836 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
837 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
840 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
842 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
843 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
844 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
846 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
848 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
849 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
850 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
851 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
853 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
855 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
856 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
857 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
858 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
859 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
861 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
862 automatic manpage generation.
864 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
866 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
867 correction to the description of --continue.
869 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
871 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
872 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
874 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
876 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
878 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
879 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
880 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
881 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
882 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
883 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
885 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
886 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
887 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
889 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
890 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
891 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
892 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
894 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
896 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
897 but in the current build dir.
899 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
901 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
904 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
906 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
907 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
908 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
910 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
912 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
914 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
916 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
918 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
920 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
921 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
924 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
926 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
928 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
930 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
932 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
934 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
936 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
938 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
940 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
942 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
943 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
944 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
946 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
948 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
950 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
952 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
953 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
954 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
955 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
956 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
958 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
960 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
962 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
964 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
965 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
967 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
969 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
970 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
972 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
973 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
975 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
976 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
978 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
980 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
981 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
982 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
983 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
984 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
985 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
986 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
988 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
990 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
991 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
993 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
995 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
996 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
998 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1000 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1002 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1004 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1005 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1007 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1008 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1009 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1011 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1012 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1013 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1014 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1016 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1018 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1019 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1020 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1021 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1022 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1024 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1026 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1027 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1028 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1031 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1033 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1034 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1035 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1036 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1037 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1038 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1039 ignore_tags commands.
1041 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1043 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1052 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1054 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1056 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1057 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1058 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1060 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1062 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1063 --backup-converted option.
