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

18 Feb '03

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

I dunno what's going on, but, dillo won't start the bookmark server. Compiled with: ./configure --prefix=$HOME make make install-strip -- Registered Linux user #298569 Gravity brings me down.

Hi there! Thanks for the quick replies and corrections for the english version of the interview. Now it has been corrected and uploaded, so I hope it serves better its purpose. Well, I'm expecting for feedback on the tarball now. That's the gap between rc1 and an official release! Best Jorge.-

Release candidate 1
by Jorge Arellano Cid 15 Feb '03

15 Feb '03

Hi there! Finally, after a lot of work, the first release candidate tarball for dillo-0.7.0 is ready. The idea is to test this tarball and if it has no problems, the 0.7.0 release will be made of it (with only minor or cosmetical changes). Once again, I'm specially interested on non GNU/Linux platforms testing (bacause I already tested GNU/Linux). ------------------- Summary of changes: + Included the bookmarks server code inside the main tree (no separate tarball now, it all builds at once) + Added a workaround for nanosleep on Solaris in configure.in + Added a new icon for bookmarks and set ALT+B or ; as shortcuts. (there's also the option of hiding the icon from dillorc). + Made a new splash screen (contents and design). + Made a custom D_SUN_LEN definition to avoid inconsistencies with SUN_LEN, also switched memory clearing to sizeof and defined AF_LOCAL when not present. + Made ~/.dillorc/ have precedence over PATH when searching for plugins. + Added a SIGCHLD handler to avoid zombies when the dpi server is killed manually before dillo exits. + Bound find text to /. Now it works with CTRL+F or / + Added an icon for bookmarks. + Image tooltip now works with "title" instead of "alt". (had mistankenly switched to "text" before...) bm_srv12: + Made the convertion (import) from the old bookmarks format automatic. + Made it work when there's no bm.txt file present, and also when there's a zero sized bm.txt. + Fixed some Solaris compatibility glitches. + Fixed SUN_LEN issues. ------------------- The test emphasis should be on the new features. Please remember first to remove the bookmarks server binary from your ~/.dillo/ directory and killing the server if running, before testing. Now, a simple: ./configure make make install-strip should build and install everything right (it works here!) The plan is to make the official release this Sunday or early on Monday. Please send your feedback to this list. I'll be updating the site in the meanwhile, so please focus on the tarball. Last but not the least, the splash screen includes a link to the text version of an interview I gave to tux.cl magazine. The original is in spanish so I made a quick translation to english so everyone can read it. If you are knowledgeable in english grammar please read/correct it and send me the diffs. That'd be, as always, highly appreciated. Thanks a lot and I'll be expecting your feedback! Jorge.- PS: For those that read this far, here's the tarball: http://dillo.auriga.wearlab.de/dillo-0.7.0-rc1.tar.gz :-)

FYI: -l option and URL redirections
by Melvin Hadasht 09 Feb '03

09 Feb '03

Hi, When an HTTP URL is given along with the -l command line option, and if the URL is redirected by the server, the new URL is handled normally as if the -l option was not given. This behaviour can be seen with the http://www.google.com URL, at least when requesting it from France, in which case a 302 error code is given and Dillo is redirected to http://www.google.fr/. In that case, the Google logo images are downloaded. Whereas a direct dillo -l http://www.google.fr/ won't download the images. I do not consider this a serious issue, but for consistency I would have expected Dillo to show me the redirection error page with the target URL. The target URL being clickable and also retaining the SpamSafe mode. As said, this is not a high priority issue, it is rather a consistency issue. -- Melvin Hadasht

$SRCDIR/Makefile syntax
by Jan Stary 09 Feb '03

09 Feb '03

Hi, just a minor correction. $SRCDIR/Makefile says uninstall-local: -if [ -d $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir) ]; then \ rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir)/dillorc*; \ elif [ -d /etc/ ]; then \ rm -f /etc/dillorc* fi but should say uninstall-local: -if [ -d $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir) ]; then \ rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir)/dillorc*; \ elif [ -d /etc/ ]; then \ rm -f /etc/dillorc* ; \ # <<-- here fi Jan
