617 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
618 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
620 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
622 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
623 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
624 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
625 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
626 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
627 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
629 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
631 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
632 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
633 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
634 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
635 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
636 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
637 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
638 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
640 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
642 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
643 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
644 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
647 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
649 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
650 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
651 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
653 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
655 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
656 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
657 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
658 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
660 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
662 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
663 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
664 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
665 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
666 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
668 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
669 automatic manpage generation.
671 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
673 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
674 correction to the description of --continue.
676 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
678 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
679 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
681 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
683 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
685 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
686 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
687 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
688 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
689 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
690 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
692 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
693 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
694 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
696 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
697 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
698 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
699 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
701 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
703 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
704 but in the current build dir.
706 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
708 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
711 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
713 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
714 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
715 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
717 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
719 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
721 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
723 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
725 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
727 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
728 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
731 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
733 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
735 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
737 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
739 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
741 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
743 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
745 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
747 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
749 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
750 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
751 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
753 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
755 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
757 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
759 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
760 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
761 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
762 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
763 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
765 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
767 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
769 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
771 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
772 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
774 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
776 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
777 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
779 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
780 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
782 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
783 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
785 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
787 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
788 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
789 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
790 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
791 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
792 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
793 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
795 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
797 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
798 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
800 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
802 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
803 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
805 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
807 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
809 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
811 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
812 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
814 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
815 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
816 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
818 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
819 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
820 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
821 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
823 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
825 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
826 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
827 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
828 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
829 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
831 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
833 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
834 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
835 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
838 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
840 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
841 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
842 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
843 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
844 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
845 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
846 ignore_tags commands.
848 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
850 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
852 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
854 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
856 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
858 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
859 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
861 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
863 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
864 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
865 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
867 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
869 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
870 --backup-converted option.
871 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
873 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
