Actually, I think that the "full-screen" wording *does* need to be changed. I never commented on the suggestion because it seemed obvious to me, and "me too" isn't usually constructive feedback.

Attached is a small patch that makes dillo-cvs work on > OpenBSD-3.3 and -current. Is this a problem with _all_ OpenBSD? If so, I'd prefer a `./configure --no-dns-threads` option. Because we aim to be POSIX compliant. The other way around is to develop sspecific code for each OS/Platform, but that doesn't promote standards adoption and obscures the code. Cheers Jorge.-

Basically I'm waiting for these issues to be solved to make the 0.7.2 release. Has anyone else tested the changes this mail's subject alludes? Cheers Jorge.-

I contacted Henrik sometime ago, and he sent me an updated version of the patch. The problem is that authentication is a part of HTTP-1.1 and Dillo uses HTTP-1.0, so it needs some more thinking to make it fit reliably. If someone here is willing to investigate the side-effects of intermixing the protocols, and how to handle it reliably (probably plus a a projection of more HTTP-1.1 extenssions), please write me back to coordinate it.

Well, I think the text for "full-screen" and "Url-box" tooltips is OK, and as no-one else commented on it, I think they agree. As for the patch for a pop-up window with messages, I think the same as the poster who answered. The patch in the bugtrack: BUG#330: Type: misbehaviour Comments: Focus isn't set by default. URL box should get input focus initially, and after a URL is entered the main area should get focus. HTReproduce: Try to visit a page and scroll it without using the mouse. WorkedBy: nobody "... after a URL is entered the main area should get focus" Not the URL-box! (as the patch does). And as explained in the we site (New developer Info), we strive to find the root of the problem, not only workaround the symptom. Dillo-dev has hundreds of susbcribers, so I'm not the only one to complain for not answering (though it has become common that some messages remain unanswered, as everywhere). Reading the documentation in the site and adhering to it also helps to get an answer. > Also, why are my name and Randall Maas' name excised from the AUTHORS > file?

When the dillo project started more than 3 years ago, I renamed the old changelog to "ChangeLog.old". It's been there since the beginning. I'm not sure if there's still some code from Randall. What I'm sure is that the IO code is completely new, and his name still appears in IO/Url.c (even though it was completely rewritten). Sincerely Jorge.-

externa

by Andreas Zwinkau

I currently got into BitTorrent and now i am thinking, if Dillo somehow supports external applications? It would be the same with ftp and alike. Why doesn't Dillo just start another app to handle this? BitTorrent is a great idea for distributing large files to a large audience, but Dillo is a little incooperative in this way. Or is it possible to run other apps with certain protocols/filenames? -- Andreas Zwinkau | web: andi.dasstellenwirinsinternet.de | mail: andi(a)buxach.de | jabber: beza1e1(a)amessage.de Amikeco aparte, afero aparte

Proxy-auth

by Daniel Lord

Hi List, First of all. This is a very interessting and good projekt. Thanks to all the developers. Second: henrik.baastrup(a)eds.com wrote some code for 0.6.6 to enable dillo for doing proxy auth. Today I grabbed the 0.7.1 Version and build it. Sadly I realized that I had to patch it myself again. Now that it's working again is someone of the development team interessed in adding the code to the cvs?! Please say yes ;) an contact Henrik Baastrup, please. -rwx------ 1 me me 278560 Apr 8 17:05 src/dillo* ^^^^^^ unpatched -rwx------ 1 me me 279296 Apr 8 16:31 src.p/dillo* ^^^^^^ patched Greetings Daniel -- "Those who desire to give up Freedom in order to gain Security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one." --Thomas Jefferson

Great work!

by Diego Sáenz

Very thanks for dillo. It is a very good work and the only graphic browser realy usable in my pentium 150 with 16 MB ram. I have downloaded the cvs version after test the 0.6.4 in debian woody and actually i am reading the code. One idea to support various PIs can be this: To have a script file in user home with the list of available PI that can be exec when dillo load(how secure is this? i think it is fine with the right permisions) or with a few delay after dillo load. The PIs can be comented or uncomented by an cfg app. When the PIs are exec without parameters they tell its data (prefix or sufix, set menus, etc like specs sugest) to dillo by a registration socket and exits. If an PI says it is a run-all-the-time-PI(server) dillo can exec it later or else be runed only when it is need. Example: ~/.dillo/PIlist have #/bin/sh # name="bookmarksr PI" dillo_bm_serv_1_0 # name="bookmarksr PI" #dillo_bm_serv_0_9 # name="bookmarks PI" dillo_downloads_1_0 # name="external https PI" #dillo_https_0_2 when dillo starts it execs "~/.dillo/PIlist" then dillo_bm_serv_1_0 is exec send data and exits, next dillo_downloads_1_0 is exec send data ... PS: Sorry for my bad english i am spanish and like a joke says this is a black point to learn languages(even for foreing people to learn spanish here :).
