[PATCH] Some patches for configure.in

by Patrice Mandin

Hello everybody, Here are 2 small patches for Dillo: - The first one add necessary stuff to do cross-compilation easy. - The other one just modify the detection for glib/gtk, because the way it is currently done pollutes the CFLAGS variable: When you have gtk/glib missing, libjpeg is not detected. Note: I am the one who ported Dillo to Atari MiNT m68k platform. But it does not work correctly. This is why I did not notice it to you. -- Patrice Mandin WWW: http://membres.lycos.fr/pmandin/ Programmeur Linux, Atari Spécialité: Développement, jeux

If you're doing a system-wide installation, then you *do* want to place dillorc in /etc and not $HOME/.dillo, or else only root gets a config file. What you can do is compile dillo like this: ./configure --prefix=$HOME --sysconfdir=$HOME/.dillo That will install the new dillorc in $HOME/.dillo Kelson Vibber www.hyperborea.org

In my very humble opinion what needs to be discussed is a way for everyone to be pleased with whatever key bindings Dillo is setup with. How? I think we should have a "default" set of key bindings, which may or may not please everyone, _but_, more importantly, add the possibly of specifying alternate ones in the dillorc file. The code shouldn't be too hard to do, but perhaps a tad bit tedious. The options might look like: key_close_window=C-w key_quit=C-q key_back=backspace key_forward=F8 Discussions on key bindings keep reappearing on this list, which leads me to think that a more general solution like the one I've proposed is needed. Unfortunately, my hacking time has been cut down drastically. If someone wants to implement this, I'll be gald to help out. best regards, -- Livio <livio(a)ime.usp.br>

However, I shall not lead it, as I do not know the initial reasons why these default keybindings were chosen. I thought I would give you my reasons for choosing what I did, which could open the discussion further.

Oh, I didn't mean to complain to you directly--I just chose an appropriate thread for the issue. :)

I chose alt for my patch because that is what I am used to (Netscape). IMO, alt is certainly easier on a laptop. Cheers, --Phil

> <alt>-w closes the window (instead of <ctrl>-q) Why isn't this C-w as in most GTK applications? In most GTK apps (well all the apps I've ever used) I see C-w means close window and C-q means close all windows and exit.

Is this the right mailng list?

by William Trenker

I notice I am getting messages from this list (dillo-dev(a)lists.auriga.wearlab.de) and from dillo-dev(a)auriga.wearlab.de. Which list should I use for general questions about Dillo? By the way, Dillo 0.7.0 is great! It's a perfect companion for browsing html-mail with my email client, Sylpheed. Regards, Bill

patches

by Phillip Warner

Hi, I'm typically a lurker, but I thought I would release a few modifications I made to dillo. My patch also includes someone's (I can't recall whose) patch that adds external downloading and opening in external browsers. I thought someone may be interested. Here are the modifications I made: <alt>-w closes the window (instead of <ctrl>-q) <alt>-b in viewport opens a new window with the bookmarks <alt>-u view source <ctrl>-r in viewport reloads the current page (bookmark button loads bookmarks in current viewport <ctrl>-h loads homepage vi-style scroll (h = left, j = down, k = up, l = right) <esc> button stops loading the current page (this has no effect on images--they still load if page is fully loaded) The patchfile can be found at: http://www.xmission.com/~locutus/various-locutus.patch and the modifications above can be seen at: http://www.xmission.com/~locutus/index.html#dillo If you find this useful, enjoy! Boa, --Phil

by Daniel Pfurtscheller

Works great on my system: Slackware Current (9.0 Beta) and gcc version 3.2.1. Keep up the good work! pfu -- "Contrariwise," continued Tweedledee, "if it was so, it might be, and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic!" -- Lewis Carroll
