182 response to POST is "technically disallowed", which I cannot find

615 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
617 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
618 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
620 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
622 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
624 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
626 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
628 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
630 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
632 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
634 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
636 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
638 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
641 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
643 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
644 accurately what --convert-links does.
646 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
648 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
649 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
651 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
653 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
654 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
655 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
657 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
659 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
660 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
662 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
664 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
665 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
666 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
667 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
668 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
669 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
671 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
673 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
674 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
675 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
676 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
677 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
678 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
679 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
680 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
682 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
684 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
685 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
686 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
689 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
691 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
692 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
693 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
695 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
697 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
698 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
699 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
700 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
702 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
704 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
705 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
706 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
707 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
708 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
710 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
711 automatic manpage generation.
713 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
715 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
716 correction to the description of --continue.
718 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
720 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
721 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
723 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
725 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
727 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
728 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
729 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
730 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
731 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
732 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
734 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
735 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
736 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
738 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
739 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
740 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
741 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
743 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
745 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
746 but in the current build dir.
748 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
750 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
753 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
755 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
756 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
757 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
759 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
761 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
763 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
765 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
767 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
769 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
770 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
773 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
775 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
777 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
779 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
781 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
783 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
785 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
787 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
789 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
791 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
792 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
793 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
795 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
797 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
799 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
801 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
802 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
803 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
804 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
805 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
807 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
809 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
811 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
813 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
814 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
816 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
818 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
819 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
821 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
822 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
824 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
825 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
827 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
829 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
830 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
831 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
832 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
833 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
834 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
835 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
837 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
839 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
840 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
842 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
844 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
845 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
847 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
849 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
851 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
853 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
854 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
856 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
857 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
858 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
860 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
861 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
862 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
863 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
865 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
867 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
868 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
869 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
870 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
871 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
873 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
875 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
876 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
877 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
880 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
882 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
883 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
884 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
885 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
886 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
887 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
888 ignore_tags commands.
890 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
892 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
894 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
896 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
898 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
900 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
901 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
903 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
905 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
906 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
907 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
909 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
911 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
912 --backup-converted option.
913 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
915 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
