- Looping mode ("-l" option). It's easier to get various split files.
(Daniel's note:)
Use it like 'urlget -l 1 http://from.this.site/file%d.html', which will
make urlget to attempt to fetch all files named file1.html, file2.html etc
until no more files are found. This is only a modification of the
STAND_ALONE part, nothing in the urlget() function was modfified for this.
Daniel Stenberg
- Changed the -h to be -i instead. -h should be preserved to help use.
- Bjorn Reese indicated that Borland _might_ use '_WIN32' instead of the
VC++ WIN32 define and therefore I added a little fix for that.
Version 2.2
Johan Andersson
- The urlget function didn't set the path to url when using proxy.
- Fixed bug with IMC proxy. Now using (almost) complete GET command.
Daniel Stenberg
- Made it compile on Solaris. Had to reorganize the includes a bit.
(so Win32, Linux, SunOS 4 and Solaris 2 compile fine.)
- Made Johan's keepalive keyword optional with the -k flag (since it
makes a lot of urlgets take a lot longer time).
- Made a '-h' switch in case you want the HTTP-header in the output.
Version 2.1
Daniel Stenberg and Kjell Ericson
- Win32-compilable
- No more global variables
- Mute option (no output at all to stderr)
- Full range of return codes from urlget(), which is now written to be a
function for easy-to-use in [other] programs.
- Define STAND_ALONE to compile the stand alone urlget program
- Now compiles with gcc options -ansi -Wall -pedantic ;)
Version 2.0
- Introducing ftp GET support. The FTP URL type is recognized and used.
- Renamed the project to 'urlget'.
- Supports the user+passwd in the FTP URL (otherwise it tries anonymous
login with a weird email address as password).
Version 1.5
Daniel Stenberg
- The skip_header() crap messed it up big-time. By simply removing that
one we can all of a sudden download anything ;)
- No longer requires a trailing slash on the URLs.
- If the given URL isn't prefixed with 'http://', HTTP is assumed and
given a try!
- 'void main()' is history.
Version 1.4
Daniel Stenberg
- The gopher source used the ppath variable instead of path which could
lead to disaster.
Version 1.3
Daniel Stenberg
- Well, I added a lame text about the time it took to get the data. I also
fought against Johan to prevent his -f option (to specify a file name
that should be written instead of stdout)! =)
- Made it write 'connection refused' for that particular connect()
problem.
- Renumbered the version. Let's not make silly 1.0.X versions, this is
a plain 1.3 instead.
Version 1.2
Johan Andersson
- Discovered and fixed the problem with getting binary files. puts() is
now replaced with fwrite(). (Daniel's note: this also fixed the buffer
overwrite problem I found in the previous version.)
Rafael Sagula <sagula@inf.ufrgs.br>
- Let "-p" before "-x".
Daniel Stenberg <Daniel.Stenberg@sth.frontec.se>
- Bugfixed the proxy usage. It should *NOT* use nor strip the port number
from the URL but simply pass that information to the proxy. This also
made the user/password fields possible to use in proxy [ftp-] URLs.
(like in ftp://user:password@ftp.my.site:8021/README)
Johan Andersson <johan@homemail.com>
- Implemented HTTP proxy support.
- Receive byte counter added.
Bjorn Reese <breese@imada.ou.dk>
- Implemented URLs (and skipped the old syntax).
- Output is written to stdout, so to achieve the above example, do:
httpget http://143.54.10.6/info_logo.gif > test.gif
Version 1.1
Daniel Stenberg <Daniel.Stenberg@sth.frontec.se>
- Adjusted it slightly to accept named hosts on the command line. We
wouldn't wanna use IP numbers for the rest of our lifes, would we?
Version 1.0
Rafael Sagula <sagula@inf.ufrgs.br>
- Wrote the initial httpget, which started all this!
