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".

Hey Emacs, this is -*- outline -*- mode
|
|
|
|
This is the todo list for Wget. I don't have any time-table of when I
|
|
plan to implement these features; this is just a list of things I'd
|
|
like to see in Wget. I'll work on some of them myself, and I will
|
|
accept patches in their direction. The items are not listed in any
|
|
particular order. Not all of them are user-visible changes.
|
|
|
|
* Make `-k' convert <base href=...> too.
|
|
|
|
* Add option to clobber existing file names (no `.N' suffixes).
|
|
|
|
* Introduce a concept of "boolean" options. For instance, every
|
|
boolean option `--foo' would have a `--no-foo' equivalent for
|
|
turning it off. Get rid of `--foo=no' stuff. Short options would
|
|
be handled as `-x' vs. `-nx'.
|
|
|
|
* Implement "thermometer" display (not all that hard; use an
|
|
alternative show_progress() if the output goes to a terminal.)
|
|
|
|
* Add option to only list wildcard matches without doing the download.
|
|
|
|
* Add case-insensitivity as an option.
|
|
|
|
* Handle MIME types correctly. There should be an option to (not)
|
|
retrieve files based on MIME types, e.g. `--accept-types=image/*'.
|
|
|
|
* Implement "persistent" retrieving. In "persistent" mode Wget should
|
|
treat most of the errors as transient.
|
|
|
|
* Allow time-stamping by arbitrary date.
|
|
|
|
* Fix Unix directory parser to allow for spaces in file names.
|
|
|
|
* Allow size limit to files.
|
|
|
|
* -k should convert convert relative references to absolute if not
|
|
downloaded.
|
|
|
|
* Recognize HTML comments correctly. Add more options for handling
|
|
bogus HTML found all over the 'net.
|
|
|
|
* Implement breadth-first retrieval.
|
|
|
|
* Download to .in* when mirroring.
|
|
|
|
* Add an option to delete or move no-longer-existent files when
|
|
mirroring.
|
|
|
|
* Implement a switch to avoid downloading multiple files (e.g. x and
|
|
x.gz).
|
|
|
|
* Implement uploading (--upload URL?) in FTP and HTTP.
|
|
|
|
* Rewrite FTP code to allow for easy addition of new commands. It
|
|
should probably be coded as a simple DFA engine.
|
|
|
|
* Recognize more FTP servers (VMS).
|
|
|
|
* Make HTTP timestamping use If-Modified-Since facility.
|
|
|
|
* 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.
|
|
|
|
* Implement correct RFC1808 URL parsing.
|
|
|
|
* Implement HTTP cookies.
|
|
|
|
* Implement more HTTP/1.1 bells and whistles (ETag, Content-MD5 etc.)
|
|
|
|
* Support SSL encryption through SSLeay or OpenSSL.
