41 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
43 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
45 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
46 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
48 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
50 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
53 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
55 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
57 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
59 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
60 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
62 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
64 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
65 non-interactive in all cases.
67 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
69 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
70 running mkinstalldirs.
72 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
74 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
75 outside the source tree.
76 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
77 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
79 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
81 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
83 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

90 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
92 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
94 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
96 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
98 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.

108 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
110 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
113 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
115 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
116 accurately what --convert-links does.
118 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
120 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
121 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
123 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
125 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
126 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
127 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
129 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
131 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
132 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
134 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
136 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
137 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
138 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
139 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
140 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
141 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
143 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
145 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
146 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
147 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
148 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
149 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
150 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
151 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
152 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
154 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
156 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
157 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
158 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
161 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
163 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
164 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
165 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
167 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
169 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
170 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
171 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
172 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
174 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
176 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
177 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
178 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
179 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
180 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
182 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
183 automatic manpage generation.
185 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
187 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
188 correction to the description of --continue.
190 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
192 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
193 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
195 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
197 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
199 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
200 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
201 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
202 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
203 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
204 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
206 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
207 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
208 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
210 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
211 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
212 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
213 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
215 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
217 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
218 but in the current build dir.
220 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
222 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
225 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
227 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
228 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
229 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
231 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
233 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
235 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
237 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
239 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
241 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
242 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
245 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
247 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
249 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
251 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
253 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
255 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
257 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
259 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
261 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
263 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
264 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
265 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
267 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
269 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
271 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
273 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
274 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
275 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
276 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
277 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
279 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
281 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
283 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
285 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
286 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
288 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
290 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
291 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
293 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
294 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
296 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
297 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
299 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
301 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
302 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
303 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
304 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
305 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
306 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
307 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
309 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
311 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
312 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
314 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
316 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
317 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
319 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
321 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
323 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
325 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
326 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
328 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
329 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
330 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
332 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
333 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
334 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
335 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
337 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
339 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
340 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
341 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
342 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
343 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
345 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
347 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
348 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
349 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
352 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
354 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
355 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
356 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
357 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
358 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
359 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
360 ignore_tags commands.
362 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
364 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
366 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
368 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
370 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
372 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
373 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
375 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
377 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
378 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
379 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
381 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
383 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
384 --backup-converted option.
385 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
387 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
