This is the to-do list for GNU Wget. There is no timetable of when we
plan to implement these features -- this is just a list of features
we'd like to see in Wget, as well as a list of problems that need
fixing. Patches to implement these items are likely to be accepted.

and if they patch the documentation as well.

Perhaps -I and -X should take an optional hostname before the directory?
* Add an option to not encode special characters like ' ' and '~' when saving
local files. Would be good to have a mode that encodes all special characters
(as now), one that encodes none (as above), and one that only encodes a
character if it was encoded in the original URL (e.g. %20 but not %7E).
* --retr-symlinks should cause wget to traverse links to directories too.
* Make wget return non-zero status in more situations, like incorrect HTTP auth.

* Implement better spider options.
* Add more protocols (e.g. gopher and news), implementing them in a
modular fashion.
* Implement a concept of "packages" a la mirror.
* Add a "rollback" option to have continued retrieval throw away a
configurable number of bytes at the end of a file before resuming
download. Apparently, some stupid proxies insert a "transfer
interrupted" string we need to get rid of.
* When using --accept and --reject, you can end up with empty directories. Have
Wget any such at the end.
