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

355 prohibition irrelevant.

568 2003-11-09 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>

739 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
741 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
743 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
744 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
746 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
748 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

763 non-interactive in all cases.
765 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
767 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
768 running mkinstalldirs.
770 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
772 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
773 outside the source tree.
774 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
775 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
777 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

811 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
813 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
814 accurately what --convert-links does.
816 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
818 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
819 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
821 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
823 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
824 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
825 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
827 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
829 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
830 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
832 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
834 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
835 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
836 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
837 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
838 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
839 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
841 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
843 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
844 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
845 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
846 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
847 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
848 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
849 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
850 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
852 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
854 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
855 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
856 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
859 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
861 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
862 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
863 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
865 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
867 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
868 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
869 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
870 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
872 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
874 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
875 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
876 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
877 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
878 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
880 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
881 automatic manpage generation.
883 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
885 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
886 correction to the description of --continue.
888 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
890 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
891 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
893 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
895 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
897 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
898 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
899 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
900 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
901 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
902 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
904 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
905 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
906 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
908 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
909 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
910 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
911 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
913 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
915 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
916 but in the current build dir.
918 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
920 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
923 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
925 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
926 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
927 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
929 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
931 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
933 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
935 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
937 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
939 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
940 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
943 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
945 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
947 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
949 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
951 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
953 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
955 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
957 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
959 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
961 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
962 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
963 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
965 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
967 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
969 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
971 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
972 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
973 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
974 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
975 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
977 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
979 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
981 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
983 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
984 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
986 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
988 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
989 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
991 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
992 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
994 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
995 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
997 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
999 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
1000 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
1001 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
1002 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
1003 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
1004 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1005 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1007 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1009 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1010 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1012 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1014 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1015 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1017 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1019 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1021 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1023 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1024 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1026 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1027 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1028 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1030 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1031 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1032 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1033 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1035 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1037 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1038 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1039 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1040 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1041 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1043 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1045 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1046 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1047 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1050 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1052 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1053 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1054 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1055 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1056 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1057 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1058 ignore_tags commands.
1060 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1062 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1070 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1071 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1073 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1075 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1076 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1077 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1079 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1081 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1082 --backup-converted option.
