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

714 Reported by Herold Heiko.
716 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

760 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
762 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
764 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
765 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
767 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
769 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
772 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

781 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
783 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
784 non-interactive in all cases.
786 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
788 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
789 running mkinstalldirs.
791 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
793 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
794 outside the source tree.
795 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
796 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
798 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

813 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
815 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

827 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
829 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
832 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
834 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
835 accurately what --convert-links does.
837 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
839 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
840 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
842 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
844 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
845 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
846 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
848 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
850 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
851 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
853 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
855 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
856 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
857 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
858 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
859 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
860 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
862 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
864 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
865 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
866 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
867 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
868 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
869 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
870 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
871 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
873 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
875 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
876 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
877 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
880 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
882 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
883 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
884 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
886 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
888 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
889 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
890 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
891 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
893 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
895 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
896 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
897 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
898 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
899 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
901 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
902 automatic manpage generation.
904 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
906 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
907 correction to the description of --continue.
909 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
911 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
912 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
914 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
916 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
918 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
919 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
920 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
921 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
922 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
923 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
925 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
926 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
927 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
929 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
930 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
931 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
932 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
934 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
936 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
937 but in the current build dir.
939 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
941 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
944 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
946 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
947 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
948 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
950 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
952 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
954 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
956 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
958 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
960 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
961 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
964 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
966 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
968 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
970 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
972 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
974 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
976 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
978 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
980 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
982 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
983 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
984 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
986 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
988 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
990 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
992 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
993 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
994 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
995 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
996 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
998 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1000 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
1002 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1004 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
1005 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
1007 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1009 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
1010 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
1012 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
1013 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
1015 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
1016 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
1018 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1020 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
1021 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
1022 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
1023 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
1024 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
1025 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1026 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1028 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1030 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1031 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1033 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1035 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1036 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1038 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1040 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1042 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1044 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1045 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1047 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1048 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1049 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1051 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1052 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1053 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1054 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1056 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1058 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1059 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1060 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1061 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1062 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1064 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1066 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1067 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1068 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1071 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1073 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1074 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1075 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1076 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1077 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1078 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1079 ignore_tags commands.
1081 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1083 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1091 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1092 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1094 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1096 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1097 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1098 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1100 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1102 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1103 --backup-converted option.

1177 1998-01-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
1179 * Makefile.in: Use `test ...' rather than `[ ... ]'.
1181 * wget.texi (Advanced Options): Explained suffices.
