ACK, a ./configure option to keep this code out of the binary would be nice, too.

Great! This is very good for both projects.

Hold on a bit, we're working with Ferdi on a new plugin manager that will ease a lot the making of new plugins. (if you can't hold your breath, drop me a note and I'll send it to you). > 2. I'd like to see some things in future releases. Where can I post suggestions? You said 'dont brainstorm to the mailing list'. First, think a lot of suggestions before posting them. That's the idea. We have little manpower and a lot to do, so we focus on the most important issues only. > What I'd like to see: Incremental full text search like in the latest Mozilla version.

No, we haven't implemented animated GIFS. I think gtk's timeout functions are a good choice for triggering the frame display change. I'd start there. Note that some of us are *very* happy without animated gifs, so a dillorc option to disable animation is a must! Cheers Jorge.-

XFT Patch

by Nicola Girardi

I updated my patch (which was derived from another patch I don't remember from who) for current CVS, and added an autoconf check to add the necessary compiler and linker flags automatically. I hope it's useful for someone, and I hope that it actually creeps in. Such a small effort for such a nice feature. :-) Attached (it's small)!

<form> parsing

by Russell Nelson

If you visit http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest_cache.asp?zip=13676&dist=100&submit1…, you'll find that the download form is missing. Under [details] there should be a checkbox and the label "download". There should be a submit image before the line that says "Travel Bug". This is present in 0.7.2. Interestingly, if I save the HTML from inside Galeon, and load it in Dillo, the form is present. -- --My blog is at angry-economist.russnelson.com | "I have officially heard Crynwr sells support for free software | PGPok | every excuse for being 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315 268 1925 voice | assigned a single room at Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | +1 315 268 9201 FAX | FGC." --Liz Perch

Dillo & Sylpheed-Claws: finally!

by Melvin Hadasht

Hi, I want just to announce that Sylpheed-Claws (email client), as of the released version 0.9.0claws, officially supports Dillo as its embedded HTML mail viewer, in the form of a loadable plugin. I would like to thank Jorge for integrating and improving the necessary patches. I would also like to thank him and all other contributors to Dillo for their work and for providing such a fast/small/useable/useful browser. Keep on the good work! Best regards. -- Melvin Hadasht

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 9 May 2003 22:32:00 +0100 From: Marius Kempe <tanadan(a)tanadan.uklinux.net> To: jcid(a)softhome.net Subject: replies from a dillo user Hello! I would just like to say that I have been using dillo for the past 6 months? or so and I really like it. I would even consider contributing to the project if I had any money, but keep up the good work! :-) I guess there's not much point in this letter, just saying 'thank you'. -- Tanadan Which would win in a fight, a monkey, a robot, a pirate, or a ninja?
