FTP message added for mainline in 318ced055a12. Thanks, stsc!

Example of current output for FTP: message given when doesn't exist, but not when it does. Also, the


2008-06-24 12:49:18 URL: ftp://micah.cowan.name/fubar [0] -> "fubar" [1]


line is misleading in both cases, since it isn't actually downloaded (AFAICT) in either case.


$ wget -nv --spider ftp://micah.cowan.name/fubar
2008-06-24 12:49:18 URL: ftp://micah.cowan.name/fubar [375] -> ".listing" [1]
No such file “fubar”.
2008-06-24 12:49:18 URL: ftp://micah.cowan.name/fubar [0] -> "fubar" [1]
$ wget -nv --spider ftp://micah.cowan.name/pub/ditty/ditty-current.tar.gz
2008-06-24 12:49:47 URL: ftp://micah.cowan.name/pub/ditty/ditty-current.tar.gz [496] -> ".listing" [1]
2008-06-24 12:49:47 URL: ftp://micah.cowan.name/pub/ditty/ditty-current.tar.gz [40642] -> "ditty-current.tar.gz" [1]

Applied stsc's patch for mainline in a775d14ed688. Still needs message improvements for FTP before this bug can really be closed out.

Along with this, FTP --spider mode needs some message-related fixes too. Thanks to stsc's patch, it now complains properly when the file doesn't exist, but still doesn't give output when it does.

Eep. Clearly too little output.

Hello,

this is a forwarded wishlist request:
http://bugs.debian.org/338326

--8<--
When using wget in non-verbose mode, it prints out each file transferred:

$ wget -nv <someurl>
14:35:19 URL:<someurl> [2838/2838] -> "<localfilename>" [1]

When using spider mode I expect to get a similar output, because I want to
see which files are still available and which aren't. However:

$ wget --spider -nv <someurl>
200 OK

The filename is missing. The problem is that spider mode is used especially
when a large number of files is checked, and it would be really helpful to
know which urls triggered which (successful) server response.

So I would expect something like that:
$ wget -nv <someurl>
14:35:19 URL:<someurl> 200 OK
--8<--

IMHO in the last commandline --spider is missing.
The output of --spider -nv changed from 1.10 to 1.11:

1.10:
$ wget --spider -nv <someurl>
200 OK
$

1.11:
$ wget --spider -nv <someurl>
$

I don't know if you want to change it back to give some output.

thx.
