It suggests there's a problem with autoconf. - Victor

by thestar

How do I compile the dillo cvs? I've run aclocal, autoconf, (automake fails though). I then run ./configure, which fails configure: error: can not find install-sh or install.sh in . ./.. ./../.. Thanks

Anyway, I've attached is a five-minutes-hack, which fills this function, and binds it to the page menu. In this form, it won't certainly find its way into the "official" version, but you may find it useful. Sebastian

Can I do this with dillo?

by Miguel Manso

Hi there, I've a project in hands where we'll do some sort of kiosk's with linux for some users. We'll use Linux (cost savings) and we need a _FAST_ browser. I've seen dillo working and I think its HTML rendering capabilities are OK for my needs my I need to print some "basic" stuff (like small lists and stuff). Can I do such a thing with dillo? I was looking around and I think I didn't see any "print" option. Any suggestion? Thanks a lot. ===== Miguel Manso mmanso(a)yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I've just committed event handling for DwTable, test it e.g. by selecting text in the red bar at <http://www.daemonnews.org>. There are still some glitches, e.g. in the splash screen, with the pointer on the thin black lines), but these are minor issues, in most cases selection works reasonable and (in all cases) stable, so I'd like to finish the work on it for the 0.7.2 release. Further features (scrolling, word selection and some others) will be done for 0.7.3 or later. Sebastian

Somebody on the fvwm mailing list suggested to use "RecaptureWindow" to solve this problem, but I don't know how.

Printing support

by thestar

Is there any work done related to printing support? Currently, it's the major reason why I'm using mozilla... Also, what is the current status on: Multiple plugins (there is apparently a rumour that dillo only supports one plugin at a time). Cut and paste (Apparently it's working nicely now...) ftp support. (Achieved goals states that this is already here) https support The bookmarks are great! Dillo is truely a very nice browser, and comming nicely! ----- My first post to the list with Ximian Evolution :)

I prefer the current behaviour ! I rarely want to drag a URL to anywhere. I - IMHO - more often want to cut and paste the text.

This one is fixed. AFAIS, all known bugs related to selection are fixed now, aside from several known glitches (those mentioned at the beginning of src/selection.c). Please notice, if I'm incorrect. Some time ago, Andreas Schweitzer wrote: > Maybe it's a known glitch, but if you go to > http://www.daemonnews.org and try to select anything in the top red bar > or anything in the left column, it works ...hmmm ... "funky" ... The only two points I see (and saw when you wrote this mail), are: 1. If you start e.g. the selection in "Submit News" (say, between "b" and "m" in "Submit"), and move the pointer to the right, there is a small area where _not_, as expected, "mit News" is selected, but instead "BSD Newsletter Sub". This is a known fault, the solution is to add event handling to DwTable. 2. You can start the selection within a link: as soon as you leave the link, the state switches from SELECTION_LINK_PRESSED to SELECTION_SELECTING (see src/selection.[ch]). This is meant as a feature! (Other browsers start dragging the URL, but also after this has been implemented in dillo, it would IMO be nice to preserve a possibility to archieve the current behavior.) Did you mean one of these two? Sebastian
