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

648 Reported by Herold Heiko.
650 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

691 * wget.texi (Proxies): Fix typo.
692 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
693 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
694 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
696 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
698 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
699 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
701 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
703 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
706 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
708 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
710 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
712 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
713 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
715 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
717 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
718 non-interactive in all cases.
720 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
722 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
723 running mkinstalldirs.
725 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
727 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
728 outside the source tree.
729 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
730 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
732 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
734 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

740 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
742 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
743 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
745 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
747 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
749 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
751 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
753 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
755 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
757 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
759 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
761 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
763 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
766 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
768 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
769 accurately what --convert-links does.
771 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
773 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
774 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
776 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
778 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
779 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
780 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
782 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
784 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
785 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
787 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
789 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
790 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
791 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
792 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
793 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
794 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
796 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
798 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
799 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
800 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
801 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
802 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
803 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
804 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
805 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
807 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
809 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
810 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
811 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
814 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
816 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
817 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
818 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
820 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
822 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
823 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
824 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
825 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
827 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
829 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
830 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
831 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
832 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
833 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
835 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
836 automatic manpage generation.
838 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
840 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
841 correction to the description of --continue.
843 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
845 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
846 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
848 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
850 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
852 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
853 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
854 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
855 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
856 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
857 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
859 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
860 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
861 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
863 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
864 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
865 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
866 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
868 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
870 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
871 but in the current build dir.
873 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
875 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
878 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
880 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
881 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
882 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
884 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
886 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
888 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
890 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
892 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
894 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
895 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
898 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
900 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
902 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
904 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
906 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
908 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
910 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
912 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
914 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
916 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
917 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
918 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
920 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
922 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
924 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
926 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
927 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
928 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
929 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
930 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
932 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
934 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
936 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
938 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
939 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
941 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
943 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
944 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
946 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
947 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
949 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
950 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
952 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
954 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
955 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
956 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
957 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
958 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
959 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
960 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
962 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
964 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
965 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
967 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
969 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
970 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
972 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
974 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
976 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
978 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
979 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
981 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
982 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
983 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
985 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
986 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
987 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
988 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
990 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
992 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
993 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
994 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
995 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
996 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
998 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1000 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1001 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1002 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1005 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1007 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1008 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1009 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1010 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1011 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1012 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1013 ignore_tags commands.
1015 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1017 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1021 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
1023 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1025 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1026 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1028 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1030 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1031 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1032 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1034 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1036 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1037 --backup-converted option.
1038 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
