37 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
39 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
41 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
42 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
44 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
46 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
49 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
51 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
53 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
55 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
56 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
58 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
60 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
61 non-interactive in all cases.
63 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
65 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
66 running mkinstalldirs.
68 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
70 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
71 outside the source tree.
72 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
73 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
75 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
77 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
79 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

85 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
86 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
88 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
90 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
92 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
94 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
96 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

104 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
106 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
109 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
111 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
112 accurately what --convert-links does.
114 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
116 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
117 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
119 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
121 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
122 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
123 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
125 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
127 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
128 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
130 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
132 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
133 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
134 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
135 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
136 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
137 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
139 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
141 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
142 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
143 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
144 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
145 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
146 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
147 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
148 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
150 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
152 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
153 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
154 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
157 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
159 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
160 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
161 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
163 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
165 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
166 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
167 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
168 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
170 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
172 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
173 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
174 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
175 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
176 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
178 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
179 automatic manpage generation.
181 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
183 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
184 correction to the description of --continue.
186 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
188 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
189 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
191 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
193 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
195 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
196 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
197 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
198 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
199 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
200 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
202 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
203 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
204 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
206 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
207 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
208 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
209 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
211 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
213 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
214 but in the current build dir.
216 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
218 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
221 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
223 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
224 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
225 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
227 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
229 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
231 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
233 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
235 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
237 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
238 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
241 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
243 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
245 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
247 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
249 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
251 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
253 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
255 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
257 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
259 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
260 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
261 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
263 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
265 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
267 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
269 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
270 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
271 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
272 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
273 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
275 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
277 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
279 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
281 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
282 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
284 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
286 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
287 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
289 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
290 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
292 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
293 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
295 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
297 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
298 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
299 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
300 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
301 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
302 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
303 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
305 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
307 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
308 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
310 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
312 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
313 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
315 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
317 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
319 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
321 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
322 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
324 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
325 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
326 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
328 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
329 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
330 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
331 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
333 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
335 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
336 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
337 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
338 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
339 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
341 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
343 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
344 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
345 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
348 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
350 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
351 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
352 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
353 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
354 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
355 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
356 ignore_tags commands.
358 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
360 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
362 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
364 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
366 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
368 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
369 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
371 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
373 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
374 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
375 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
377 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
379 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
380 --backup-converted option.
381 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
383 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
