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

656 (Proxies): Sync the text with the example.
657 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
658 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
660 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
662 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
663 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
665 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
667 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
670 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
672 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
674 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
676 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
677 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
679 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
681 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
682 non-interactive in all cases.
684 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
686 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
687 running mkinstalldirs.
689 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
691 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
692 outside the source tree.
693 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
694 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
696 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
698 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

704 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
706 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
707 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
709 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
711 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
713 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
715 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.

725 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
727 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
730 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
732 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
733 accurately what --convert-links does.
735 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
737 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
738 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
740 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
742 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
743 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
744 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
746 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
748 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
749 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
751 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
753 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
754 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
755 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
756 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
757 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
758 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
760 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
762 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
763 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
764 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
765 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
766 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
767 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
768 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
769 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
771 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
773 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
774 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
775 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
778 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
780 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
781 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
782 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
784 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
786 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
787 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
788 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
789 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
791 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
793 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
794 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
795 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
796 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
797 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
799 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
800 automatic manpage generation.
802 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
804 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
805 correction to the description of --continue.
807 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
809 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
810 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
812 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
814 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
816 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
817 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
818 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
819 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
820 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
821 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
823 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
824 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
825 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
827 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
828 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
829 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
830 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
832 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
834 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
835 but in the current build dir.
837 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
839 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
842 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
844 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
845 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
846 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
848 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
850 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
852 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
854 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
856 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
858 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
859 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
862 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
864 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
866 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
868 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
870 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
872 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
874 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
876 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
878 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
880 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
881 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
882 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
884 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
886 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
888 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
890 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
891 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
892 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
893 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
894 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
896 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
898 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
900 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
902 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
903 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
905 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
907 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
908 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
910 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
911 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
913 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
914 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
916 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
918 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
919 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
920 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
921 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
922 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
923 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
924 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
926 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
928 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
929 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
931 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
933 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
934 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
936 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
938 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
940 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
942 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
943 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
945 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
946 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
947 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
949 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
950 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
951 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
952 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
954 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
956 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
957 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
958 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
959 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
960 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
962 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
964 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
965 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
966 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
969 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
971 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
972 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
973 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
974 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
975 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
976 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
977 ignore_tags commands.
979 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
981 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
983 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
985 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
987 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
989 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
990 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
992 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
994 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
995 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
996 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
998 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1000 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1001 --backup-converted option.
1002 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
1004 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
