Wget will use "linear" backoff, waiting 1 second after the +first failure, 2 after the second, up to SECONDS. waitretry is set to 10 by +default in the system wgetrc. + +** New -p / --page-requisites / page_requisites = on option causes wget to +download all ancillary files necessary to display a given HTML page properly +(e.g. inlined images). + +** New -E / --html-extension / html_extension = on option causes wget to append +".html" to text/html filenames not ending in regexp "\.[Hh][Tt][Mm][Ll]?". + +** New type of .wgetrc command -- "lockable Boolean". Can be set to on, off, +always, or never. This allows the .wgetrc to override the commandline.
