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

747 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
749 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
751 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
752 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
754 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
756 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

770 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
771 non-interactive in all cases.
773 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
775 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
776 running mkinstalldirs.
778 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
780 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
781 outside the source tree.
782 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
783 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
785 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
787 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

819 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
821 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
822 accurately what --convert-links does.
824 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
826 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
827 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
829 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
831 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
832 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
833 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
835 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
837 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
838 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
840 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
842 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
843 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
844 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
845 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
846 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
847 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
849 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
851 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
852 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
853 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
854 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
855 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
856 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
857 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
858 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
860 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
862 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
863 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
864 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
867 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
869 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
870 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
871 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
873 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
875 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
876 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
877 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
878 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
880 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
882 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
883 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
884 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
885 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
886 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
888 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
889 automatic manpage generation.
891 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
893 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
894 correction to the description of --continue.
896 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
898 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
899 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
901 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
903 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
905 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
906 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
907 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
908 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
909 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
910 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
912 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
913 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
914 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
916 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
917 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
918 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
919 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
921 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
923 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
924 but in the current build dir.
926 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
928 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
931 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
933 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
934 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
935 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
937 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
939 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
941 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
943 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
945 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
947 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
948 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
951 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
953 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
955 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
957 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
959 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
961 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
963 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
965 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
967 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
969 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
970 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
971 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
973 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
975 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
977 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
979 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
980 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
981 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
982 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
983 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
985 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
987 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
989 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
991 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
992 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
994 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
996 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
997 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
999 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
1000 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
1002 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
1003 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
1005 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1007 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
1008 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
1009 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
1010 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
1011 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
1012 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1013 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1015 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1017 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1018 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1020 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1022 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1023 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1025 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1027 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1029 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1031 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1032 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1034 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1035 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1036 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1038 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1039 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1040 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1041 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1043 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1045 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1046 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1047 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1048 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1049 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1051 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1053 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1054 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1055 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1058 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1060 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1061 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1062 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1063 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1064 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1065 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1066 ignore_tags commands.
1068 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1070 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1078 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1079 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1081 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1083 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1084 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1085 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1087 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1089 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1090 --backup-converted option.
