The difference between 0.7.1 and 0.7.1.[12] are indeed only 2 or 3 lines. One could say that 0.7.1 and 0.7.1.1 *should not* have been released. 0.7.1.1 and 0.7.1.2 are something like "rapid patches". I don't really think that Jorge will release any subversion like these two again. Oh, and yes, these few lines were responsible for the weird bookmark-add behaviour :-) > My requests are both based on my experience with the Opera browser. > First, is it difficult to change Dillo so that I can copy-and-paste > text from the browser window?

Cheers Andreas P.S.: The first two answers could have been found from checking the very recent archives. P.P.S.: you must have a reeeeeeeaaaaaaaaalllllyyyy wide terminal, or why are your lines soooooooooooo long ? ;-) -- **************************** NEW ADDRESS ****************************** Hamburger Sternwarte Universitaet Hamburg Gojenbergsweg 112 Tel. ++49 40 42891 4016 D-21029 Hamburg, Germany Fax. ++49 40 42891 4198

First, is it difficult to change Dillo so that I can copy-and-paste text from the browser window? I find it very handy to copy text from a web page to paste into a document, or an email, or whatever. Second, I really find Opera's mouse gestures for going forward and back very handy. To go to the previous page (back) you hold down the right mouse button and click the left button. To go forward you hold down the left mouse button and click the right button. With a little practice you can move back and forth between pages very quickly. I'm not sure how to find the exact subversion, but the difference between 0.7.1.1 and 0.7.1.2 is apparently only a few lines. I have never had dillo crash with bookmarks, but my bookmarks are still unreliable - as dillo matures this will get better (I hope - I am not a developer ;) ). As for cut & paste, I have never used a version of dillo, but there is a cut & paste patch against CVS (Or, it is already in CVS?) In summary, The bookmarks problem exists in the actual bm server (afaik), and cut & paste is comming. As for mouse gestures, I can't see that happening soon... I'd rather see ftp support and frames :).

Yes, I wouldn't expect to see extensive support for mouse gestures in Dillo for a long time. I was only asking for consideration of two relatively simple gestures that are very effective, and addictive, once you've tried them. Cheers, Bill

A Question and 2 Requests

by William Trenker

How do I tell exactly which sub-version of Dillo is running? I was running Dillo 0.7.1 and it crashed when I tried to save a bookmark. I wanted to be sure I had the latest Dillo before reporting the problem. I see that Dillo 0.7.1 has two sub-versions, 0.7.1.1 anmd 0.7.1.2. When I downloaded and extracted the latest tarball the resulting executable only shows 0.7.1 for the --version option. My requests are both based on my experience with the Opera browser. First, is it difficult to change Dillo so that I can copy-and-paste text from the browser window? I find it very handy to copy text from a web page to paste into a document, or an email, or whatever. Second, I really find Opera's mouse gestures for going forward and back very handy. To go to the previous page (back) you hold down the right mouse button and click the left button. To go forward you hold down the left mouse button and click the right button. With a little practice you can move back and forth between pages very quickly. Thanks for a great browser! Bill

But maybe I miss > something or some glitch :-) It seems that you forget that OpenBSD ports must be able to run on all the architectures. That's not because it runs okay for your arch that it is okay for all. For example the port is actually building fine on sparc64 but display is fucked. I hope that you understand better now :) Damien

Ah, and the user-typed password MUST not be parsed, so I set it as follows: ----------------------------------------------- Entities Parsing ----------------------------------------------- Hidden YES html-given password YES user-typed password NO ----------------------------------------------- That is: the same as links and mozilla.

bm_srv and (') character

by Jorge Arellano Cid

Hi, Sometime ago Raphael wrote: > i noticed one small thing: when clicking "bookmark this page" the > title of the bookmark is derived from the title of the html page. when > bookmarking a page with a "'" in it, every character, starting with > "'", gets cut out. for example "blue's news" is saved as "blue". Yes, that's a lack of implementation of character escaping. I gave it some thought and it seems like character suffing for the ' character could be enough for dpi tags. That is: <dpi cmd='add_bookmark' url='file:/tmp' title='tmp''s files'> Unfortunately I have no time now to code it! Cheers Jorge.-
