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

616 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
618 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
619 accurately what --convert-links does.
621 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
623 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
624 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
626 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
628 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
629 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
630 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
632 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
634 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
635 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
637 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
639 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
640 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
641 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
642 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
643 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
644 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
646 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
648 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
649 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
650 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
651 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
652 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
653 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
654 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
655 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
657 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
659 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
660 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
661 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
664 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
666 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
667 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
668 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
670 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
672 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
673 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
674 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
675 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
677 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
679 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
680 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
681 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
682 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
683 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
685 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
686 automatic manpage generation.
688 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
690 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
691 correction to the description of --continue.
693 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
695 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
696 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
698 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
700 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
702 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
703 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
704 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
705 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
706 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
707 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
709 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
710 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
711 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
713 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
714 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
715 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
716 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
718 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
720 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
721 but in the current build dir.
723 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
725 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
728 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
730 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
731 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
732 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
734 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
736 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
738 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
740 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
742 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
744 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
745 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
748 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
750 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
752 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
754 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
756 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
758 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
760 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
762 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
764 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
766 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
767 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
768 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
770 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
772 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
774 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
776 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
777 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
778 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
779 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
780 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
782 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
784 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
786 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
788 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
789 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
791 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
793 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
794 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
796 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
797 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
799 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
800 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
802 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
804 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
805 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
806 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
807 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
808 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
809 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
810 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
812 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
814 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
815 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
817 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
819 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
820 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
822 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
824 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
826 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
828 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
829 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
831 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
832 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
833 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
835 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
836 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
837 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
838 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
840 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
842 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
843 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
844 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
845 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
846 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
848 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
850 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
851 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
852 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
855 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
857 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
858 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
859 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
860 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
861 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
862 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
863 ignore_tags commands.
865 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
867 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
869 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
871 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
873 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
875 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
876 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
878 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
880 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
881 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
882 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
884 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
886 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
887 --backup-converted option.
888 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
890 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
