60 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
62 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
64 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
65 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
67 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
69 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

91 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
93 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
94 outside the source tree.
95 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
96 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.

132 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
134 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
135 accurately what --convert-links does.
137 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
139 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
140 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
142 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
144 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
145 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
146 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
148 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
150 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
151 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
153 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
155 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
156 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
157 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
158 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
159 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
160 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
162 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
164 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
165 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
166 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
167 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
168 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
169 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
170 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
171 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
173 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
175 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
176 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
177 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
180 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
182 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
183 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
184 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
186 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
188 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
189 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
190 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
191 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
193 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
195 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
196 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
197 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
198 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
199 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
201 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
202 automatic manpage generation.
204 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
206 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
207 correction to the description of --continue.
209 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
211 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
212 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
214 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
216 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
218 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
219 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
220 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
221 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
222 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
223 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
225 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
226 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
227 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
229 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
230 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
231 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
232 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
234 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
236 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
237 but in the current build dir.
239 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
241 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
244 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
246 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
247 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
248 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
250 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
252 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
254 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
256 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
258 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
260 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
261 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
264 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
266 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
268 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
270 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
272 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
274 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
276 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
278 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
280 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
282 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
283 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
284 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
286 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
288 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
290 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
292 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
293 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
294 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
295 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
296 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
298 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
300 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
302 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
304 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
305 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
307 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
309 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
310 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
312 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
313 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
315 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
316 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
318 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
320 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
321 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
322 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
323 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
324 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
325 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
326 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
328 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
330 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
331 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
333 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
335 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
336 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
338 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
340 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
342 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
344 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
345 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
347 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
348 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
349 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
351 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
352 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
353 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
354 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
356 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
358 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
359 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
360 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
361 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
362 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
364 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
366 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
367 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
368 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
371 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
373 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
374 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
375 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
376 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
377 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
378 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
379 ignore_tags commands.
381 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
383 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
385 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
387 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
389 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
391 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
392 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
394 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
396 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
397 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
398 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
400 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
402 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
403 --backup-converted option.
404 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
406 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
