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

383 prohibition irrelevant.

596 2003-11-09 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>

721 Reported by Herold Heiko.
723 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

767 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
769 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
771 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
772 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
774 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
776 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
779 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

788 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
790 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
791 non-interactive in all cases.
793 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
795 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
796 running mkinstalldirs.
798 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
800 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
801 outside the source tree.
802 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
803 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
805 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
807 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

820 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
822 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

834 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
836 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
839 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
841 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
842 accurately what --convert-links does.
844 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
846 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
847 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
849 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
851 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
852 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
853 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
855 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
857 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
858 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
860 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
862 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
863 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
864 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
865 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
866 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
867 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
869 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
871 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
872 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
873 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
874 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
875 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
876 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
877 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
878 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
880 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
882 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
883 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
884 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
887 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
889 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
890 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
891 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
893 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
895 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
896 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
897 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
898 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
900 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
902 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
903 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
904 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
905 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
906 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
908 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
909 automatic manpage generation.
911 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
913 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
914 correction to the description of --continue.
916 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
918 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
919 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
921 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
923 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
925 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
926 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
927 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
928 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
929 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
930 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
932 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
933 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
934 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
936 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
937 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
938 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
939 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
941 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
943 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
944 but in the current build dir.
946 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
948 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
951 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
953 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
954 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
955 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
957 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
959 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
961 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
963 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
965 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
967 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
968 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
971 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
973 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
975 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
977 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
979 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
981 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
983 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
985 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
987 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
989 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
990 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
991 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
993 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
995 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
997 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
999 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
1000 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
1001 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
1002 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
1003 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
1005 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1007 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
1009 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1011 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
1012 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
1014 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1016 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
1017 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
1019 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
1020 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
1022 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
1023 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
1025 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1027 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
1028 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
1029 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
1030 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
1031 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
1032 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1033 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1035 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1037 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1038 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1040 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1042 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1043 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1045 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1047 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1049 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1051 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1052 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1054 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1055 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1056 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1058 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1059 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1060 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1061 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1063 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1065 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1066 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1067 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1068 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1069 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1071 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1073 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1074 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1075 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1078 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1080 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1081 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1082 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1083 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1084 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1085 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1086 ignore_tags commands.
1088 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1090 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1098 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1099 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1101 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1103 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1104 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1105 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1107 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1109 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1110 --backup-converted option.

1186 * Makefile.in: Use `test ...' rather than `[ ... ]'.
1188 * wget.texi (Advanced Options): Explained suffices.
