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

655 Reported by Herold Heiko.
657 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

699 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
700 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
701 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
703 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
705 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
706 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
708 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
710 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
713 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
715 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
717 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
719 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing

722 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
724 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
725 non-interactive in all cases.
727 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
729 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
730 running mkinstalldirs.
732 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
734 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
735 outside the source tree.
736 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
737 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
739 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
741 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

747 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
749 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
750 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
752 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
754 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
756 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
758 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.

762 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
764 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
766 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
768 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
770 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
773 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
775 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
776 accurately what --convert-links does.
778 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
780 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
781 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
783 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
785 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
786 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
787 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
789 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
791 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
792 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
794 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
796 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
797 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
798 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
799 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
800 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
801 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
803 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
805 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
806 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
807 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
808 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
809 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
810 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
811 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
812 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
814 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
816 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
817 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
818 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
821 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
823 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
824 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
825 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
827 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
829 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
830 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
831 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
832 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
834 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
836 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
837 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
838 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
839 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
840 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
842 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
843 automatic manpage generation.
845 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
847 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
848 correction to the description of --continue.
850 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
852 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
853 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
855 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
857 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
859 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
860 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
861 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
862 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
863 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
864 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
866 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
867 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
868 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
870 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
871 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
872 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
873 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
875 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
877 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
878 but in the current build dir.
880 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
882 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
885 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
887 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
888 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
889 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
891 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
893 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
895 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
897 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
899 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
901 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
902 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
905 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
907 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
909 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
911 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
913 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
915 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
917 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
919 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
921 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
923 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
924 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
925 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
927 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
929 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
931 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
933 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
934 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
935 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
936 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
937 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
939 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
941 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
943 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
945 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
946 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
948 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
950 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
951 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
953 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
954 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
956 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
957 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
959 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
961 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
962 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
963 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
964 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
965 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
966 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
967 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
969 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
971 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
972 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
974 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
976 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
977 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
979 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
981 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
983 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
985 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
986 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
988 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
989 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
990 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
992 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
993 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
994 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
995 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
997 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
999 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1000 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1001 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1002 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1003 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1005 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1007 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1008 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1009 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1012 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1014 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1015 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1016 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1017 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1018 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1019 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1020 ignore_tags commands.
1022 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1024 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1032 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1033 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1035 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1037 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1038 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1039 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1041 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1043 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1044 --backup-converted option.
1045 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
