Comment 1 Karsten Hopp 2005-02-02 13:48:38 UTC
there was an old copy of the manpage in the rpm, this parameter
doesn't exist anymore. fixed in wget-1.9.1-21

Comment 2 C C Magnus Gustavsson 2005-06-25 15:46:13 UTC
Actually, as far as I can tell it doesn't exist *yet*. According to Mauro
Tortonesi in http://www.mail-archive.com/wget@sunsite.dk/msg07416.html, a man
page from the CVS version was included by mistake. I just checked and the option
is included in release 1.10 from June 9.
