severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version numeric-suffixing)
that's now mentioned for the first (and only) time in the -nc documentation
should probably be mentioned elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's
hierarchy is laid out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
However, Brian McMahon <bm@iucr.org> wants the old incorrect behavior to still
be available as an option, as he depends on it to allow mirrors of his site to
send CGI queries to his original site, but still get graphics off of the mirror
site. Perhaps this would be better dealt with by adding an option to tell -k
not to convert certain URLs patterns?
go through without doing an update first, and I forgot to make the change the
second time. Just changed an erroneous main.c (main) to main.c (print_help).
said that 0 seconds are waited after the first retry, which I believe is
incorrect and does not match what's written elsewhere (e.g. wget.texi). Changed
to 1.
usual shower meditation session this morning that I hadn't changed the text 'The
"wait" command above' when I moved waitretry up so "wait" no longer _is_ above.
Fixed to say "below" and got a little more wordy on the "linear backoff".
setting in the local section, which is prefaced by a comment saying that stuff
in there shouldn't be set in the global file. Moved the setting to the global
section.
dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
* sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified some wording,
and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to @sample indentation in
wget.texi.
* wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry -- reworded
docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in sample.wgetrc are commented
out. Don't have an entire hand- cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this
file -- use @include.
wasn't being installed the first couple of times I ran `make install' after
changing sample.wgetrc. Added blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN
to acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
* wget.texi (waitretry): Herold Heiko <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s
new option was undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
sent to the list.
besides Hrvoje, and added the following three items I've been meaning to get to:
* Make -K compare X.orig to X and move the former on top of the latter if
they're the same, rather than leaving identical .orig files laying around.
* Add an option to save all text/html files with a .html extension so that when
grabbing the output of a dynamically-generated remote page, you'll end up with
a filename that will cause _your_ webserver to realize the saved static HTML
file isn't text/plain.
* Allow mirroring of FTP URLs where logging in puts you somewhere else besides
'/'.
>= width of type" warning on 32-bit architectures. Got rid of it by tricking
the compiler w/ a variable.
* url.c (UNSAFE_CHAR): The macro didn't include all the illegal characters per
RFC1738, namely everything above '~'. It also generated a warning on OSes
where char =~ unsigned char. Fixed.
download a single HTML document and all its constituents.
* po/*.{gmo,po,pot}: Regenerated after adding new options.
* po/hr.po: Hrvoje forgot '\n's on his translations of my altered messages,
causing msgfmt to balk and `make install' to fail.
* wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description, added a link to
the discussion of interaction with -N.
(Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added descriptions
of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
(Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
(Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and ignore_tags
commands.
* html.c (idmatch): Implemented checking of my new --follow-tags and
--ignore-tags options.
* init.c (commands): Added comment reminding people adding new entries doing
allocation to add corresponding freeing in cleanup().
(commands): Added new followtags and ignoretags commands.
(cleanup): Free storage for new followtags and ignoretags.
* main.c: Use of "comma-separated list" was random -- normalized it. Did some
alphabetization. Added comments pointing out "Options without arguments" and
"Options accepting an argument" sections of long_options[]. Added new options
--follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags. Added comment that Damir's --referer is
currently undocumented. Added comment that Heiko's --waitretry is partially
undocumented (mentioned in --help but not in wget.texi). Moved improperly
sorted 24, 129, and 'G' cases.
* options.h (struct options): Added new fields follow_tags and ignore_tags.
* wget.h: Added "#define EQ 0" so we can say "strcmp(a, b) == EQ".
coded for (downloading StarOffice from Sun's website). He says he doesn't use
wget any more, so he won't be writing a patch that allows downloading that
without breaking anything (such a patch would apparently involve stopping
certain characters in the URL from being escaped).
URLs, gen_page.cgi?page1 and get_page.cgi?page2, they'll both be saved as
get_page.cgi and the second will overwrite the first. Also, parameters to
implicit CGIs, like "http://www.host.com/db/?2000-03-02" cause the URLs to be
printed with trailing garbage characters, and could seg fault. I'm not sure
what Dan had in mind with this patch (no explanatory comments), but I'm removing
it for now. If he can rewrite it so it doesn't break stuff, okay.
Got rid of newly-introduced nested-if warnings in ftp.c and http.c. Fixed
apparently completely untested code in main.c that was trying to provide --wait
/ --waitretry backwards compatibility, but had multiple fundamental bugs.
