1 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
3 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
5 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
7 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
8 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
10 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
12 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
14 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
16 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
18 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
20 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
22 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
24 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
26 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
28 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
31 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
33 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
34 accurately what --convert-links does.
36 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
38 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
39 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
41 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
43 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
44 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
45 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
47 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
49 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
50 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
52 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
54 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
55 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
56 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
57 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
58 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
59 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
61 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
63 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
64 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
65 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
66 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
67 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
68 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
69 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
70 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
72 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
74 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
75 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
76 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
79 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
81 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
82 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
83 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
85 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
87 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
88 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
89 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
90 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
92 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
94 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
95 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
96 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
97 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
98 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
100 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
101 automatic manpage generation.
103 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
105 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
106 correction to the description of --continue.
108 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
110 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
111 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
113 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
115 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
117 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
118 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
119 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
120 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
121 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
122 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
124 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
125 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
126 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
128 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
129 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
130 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
131 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
133 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
135 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
136 but in the current build dir.
138 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
140 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
143 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
145 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
146 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
147 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
149 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
151 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
153 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
155 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
157 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
159 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
160 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
163 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
165 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
167 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
169 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
171 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
173 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
175 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
177 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
179 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
181 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
182 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
183 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
185 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
187 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
189 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
191 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
192 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
193 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
194 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
195 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
197 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
199 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
201 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
203 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
204 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
206 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
208 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
209 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
211 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
212 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
214 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
215 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
217 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
219 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
220 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
221 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
222 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
223 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
224 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
225 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
227 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
229 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
230 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
232 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
234 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
235 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
237 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
239 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
241 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
243 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
244 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
246 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
247 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
248 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
250 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
251 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
252 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
253 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
255 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
257 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
258 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
259 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
260 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
261 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
263 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
265 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
266 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
267 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
270 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
272 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
273 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
274 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
275 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
276 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
277 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
278 ignore_tags commands.
280 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
282 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
284 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
286 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
288 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
290 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
291 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
293 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
295 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
296 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
297 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
299 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
301 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
302 --backup-converted option.
303 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
305 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
