RE: How to monitor web pages for changes?

2002-01-18 Thread Herold Heiko

 From: Gary Funck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
 
 Can someone recommend a simple, efficient way to monitor a 
 list of various
 web pages (or in some cases, a hierarchy of pages) for 
 changes, and then

Ha!
Another one bitten by Netminds end-of-free-service.
I'm toying with the same idea, just didn't have time for it (yet).

WGet 1.8.1

2002-01-18 Thread Lauri Mägi

Hello

I'm using WGet 1.8.1 for downloading files over FTP protocol.
when filename contain spaces url is like that ftp://server.name/file%20name
and it saves files also with %20 in file names 

Prior I was using WGet 1.7 and it saved spaces as the should be.

My OS is RedHat 7.2

I tried w32 version also, but it puts @20 into filenames.

Is it a bug or just a feature ?

Files Referenced in JavaScript

2002-01-18 Thread Johnnie J. Young



wget doesn't seem to recognize allfiles that 
are referenced in JavaScript and therefore doesn't download them. (For example, 
when there are mouseover images referenced in JavaScript, like on this site http://www.katenei.com) Is there a way 
tomake sure these files get downloadedwhen using wget?

I think this would be very hard. Because in this script the Real Patch 
is put togehter in some steps.

MM_Image('name','','bild/a.jpg');

MM_Image my use Image.src='bild/a.jpg';
MM_Image my use Image.src=server+'bild/a.jpg';
MM_Image my use Image.src=bild_server+'bild/a.jpg';

so to build the correct adress for wget you need to interpret the 
javascript, to find out what is an link an what not.

 Does the compiler on that machine really not have alloca()?  I'm
 usually wary of attempts to compile `alloca.c' because they usually
 point out a mistake in the configuration process.

Sadly, I don't know much about the SCO compiler.  My experience so far
is that it's broken in some crazy ways.  ``find / -name alloca\*
-print'' didn't return any results, however.  I can try some tests
today or next week if you can think of some to try.

It's supposed to be a feature, but many users dislike that particular
feature.  Which means it is likely to go away in the next release.

(Some dangerous characters will still be encoded to %hh, but space is
likely not to be one of them.)

Re: WGet is a very useful program. Writing a program to make the documentation easy

2002-01-18 Thread Hrvoje Niksic

Michael Jennings [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 The issue centers on the documentation. Philosophically, in my
 opinion, a program should be written so the documentation is easy to
 read. In this case a hidden stripping of useless characters means
 that there is one less thing to explain in the manual.

No, it's one *more* thing to explain in the manual.  The only
characters universally agreed to be useless in the context of
parsing are the whitespace characters.  *Everything* else is subject
to serious considerations.

For example, control characters for you might be UTF8-encoded
characters for someone else.  Not stripping them away without a very
good reason to do so is for me a simple matter of correctness.

The GNU coding standards seem to suggest the same.

(...) Or go for generality.  For example, Unix programs often have
static tables or fixed-size strings, which make for arbitrary
limits; use dynamic allocation instead.  Make sure your program
handles NULs and other funny characters in the input files.  Add a
programming language for extensibility and write part of the
program in that language.

and:

Utilities reading files should not drop NUL characters, or any
other nonprinting characters _including those with codes above
0177_.  The only sensible exceptions would be utilities
specifically intended for interface to certain types of terminals
or printers that can't handle those characters.  Whenever
possible, try to make programs work properly with sequences of
bytes that represent multibyte characters, using encodings such as
UTF-8 and others.

 There is precedent for this. Microsoft Windows is in some places
 written to get around shortcomings in the processors on which it
 runs. Such accommodation puts quirkiness in the code, but it gets
 the job done.

In many cases Wget tries to accommodate to its environment to ensure
smoother operation.  But with each such accomodation we are forced to
weigh the added quirkiness (entropy) of the code against the
benefit.

In this case, implementing correct support for ^Z is not exactly
trivial, and the benefit is minimal -- the ^Z characters don't even
appear in files normally created on platforms supported by Wget, which
are Unix and Windows.

You are trying to convince us otherwise by offering an easier
implementation of ^Z, thereby reducing the costs.  But unfortunately
this easier implementation reduces correctness of the code, and is
therefore not an option.  Sorry.
