-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 After some more digging, it looks like I was wrong about the "socksified" Wget being something different from the official sources; according to the news file, socks support was introduced in Wget 1.4.0. I don't have access to 1.4 sources, but Wget 1.5.3's configure script has the --with-socks option.
The configure option was removed during the development of 1.9; according to comments it was because the check was broken. Looks like a feature that's gone the way all unmaintained code must. :) I'll remove the references from the manual and web pages. I'd like to put SOCKS support back in at some point, though my plans are to make it a configurable part of Wget, like the HTTP proxy support. However, it'll be a while before that support's in, so if in the meantime someone wants to bring the old functionality back up to snuff, I'm happy to accept patches. :) - -- Micah J.
