19 2001-11-22 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
21 * wget.texi (Proxies): Fix typo.
22 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
23 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
24 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
26 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
28 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
29 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
31 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
33 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
36 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
38 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
40 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
42 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
43 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
45 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
47 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
48 non-interactive in all cases.
50 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
52 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
53 running mkinstalldirs.
55 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
57 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
58 outside the source tree.
59 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
60 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
62 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
64 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
66 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
68 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
70 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
72 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
73 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
75 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
77 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
79 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
81 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
83 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
85 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
87 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
89 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
91 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
93 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
96 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
98 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
99 accurately what --convert-links does.
101 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
103 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
104 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
106 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
108 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
109 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
110 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
112 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
114 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
115 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
117 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
119 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
120 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
121 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
122 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
123 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
124 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
126 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
128 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
129 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
130 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
131 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
132 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
133 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
134 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
135 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
137 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
139 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
140 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
141 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
144 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
146 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
147 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
148 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
150 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
152 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
153 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
154 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
155 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
157 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
159 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
160 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
161 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
162 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
163 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
165 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
166 automatic manpage generation.
168 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
170 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
171 correction to the description of --continue.
173 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
175 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
176 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
178 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
180 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
182 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
183 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
184 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
185 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
186 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
187 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
189 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
190 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
191 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
193 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
194 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
195 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
196 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
198 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
200 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
201 but in the current build dir.
203 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
205 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
208 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
210 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
211 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
212 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
214 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
216 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
218 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
220 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
222 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
224 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
225 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
228 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
230 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
232 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
234 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
236 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
238 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
240 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
242 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
244 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
246 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
247 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
248 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
250 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
252 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
254 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
256 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
257 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
258 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
259 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
260 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
262 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
264 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
266 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
268 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
269 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
271 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
273 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
274 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
276 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
277 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
279 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
280 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
282 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
284 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
285 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
286 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
287 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
288 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
289 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
290 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
292 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
294 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
295 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
297 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
299 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
300 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
302 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
304 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
306 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
308 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
309 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
311 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
312 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
313 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
315 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
316 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
317 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
318 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
320 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
322 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
323 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
324 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
325 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
326 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
328 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
330 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
331 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
332 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
335 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
337 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
338 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
339 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
340 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
341 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
342 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
343 ignore_tags commands.
345 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
347 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
349 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
351 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
353 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
355 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
356 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
358 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
360 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
361 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
362 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
364 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
366 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
367 --backup-converted option.
368 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
370 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
