[Dillo-dev]dillo-0.8.3
by Jorge Arellano Cid 10 Feb '05

10 Feb '05

Hi there, Finally dillo-0.8.3 is ready for download. It should have been named dillo-0.8.3-rc4, but as this release is too much delayed, I took a chance and called it dillo-0.8.3 with the hope of making the official announcement this Wednesday. Please download it and give it a hard try. Notwistanding my hopes, if any BUG is detected in this short period, an rc5 must follow... Please get it at: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.3.tar.bz2 and send your feedback. 36 hours of testing time remain! :-) -- Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]new file server dpi in CVS.
by Jorge Arellano Cid 04 Jan '05

04 Jan '05

Hi Dieter, I just finished the first prototype for the two-threads-only file server dpi. I've had this in mind for sometime because the old one, despite solving a deadlock race, used too much threads when the page requested too much different files (one per file). This can cause some problems on restricted environments as PDAs or uclibc for instance. I hope this solves the issues you told me on your LP64 machine. Ah, the CVS also has a lot more fixes of -Wconversion warnings. Urbi et orbi: please test these new dpis because the current CVS is very close to becoming dillo 0.8.4! How: dpidc stop make make install-strip (this avoids the upgrading problems with running dpis/dpid). ============ Have great hollydays and enjoy as much as you can! -- Cheers Jorge.- PS: Dieter: are you subscribed to dillo-dev?

[Dillo-dev]configurable page increment
by Scott Scriven 04 Jan '05

04 Jan '05

Hello. I'd like to make the page increment configurable. I liked the old half-page behavior, and would like to be able to use that instead of the current "96% of the viewport" method. However, I don't really know where to start, or how to hook into dillo's configuration system. Ideally, I'd like to set values for how much to scroll on each type of scroll event: PgUp/Dn, Space/BkSpace, arrows, and the mouse wheel. (96%, 50%, 1 line, and 2 lines, respectively) I've found the code which configures one of these events, thanks to a snippet early on this list ("0.96 * allocation->height"), but don't know where/how to handle the others. So, any hints? Or, alternately, does anyone with more of a clue feel like adding this? -- Scott

Is there still a good reason to set umask > to 0 for all plugins? Good question! Basically the umask(0) call is there because the "Linux Programming Second Edition Unleashed" recommends so as a standard for daemons ;). Now, looking into it, it makes much more sense to use 077 as a mask for dpis (i.e. only allowing the owner). > > Another detail I noticed while checking file creation > is this: > --- dillo-0.8.3/src/cookies.c.rz 2004-11-28 12:39:33.000000000 +0100 > +++ dillo-0.8.3/src/cookies.c 2004-11-28 12:40:22.000000000 +0100 > @@ -100,7 +100,7 @@ > > if ((F_in = fopen(filename, "r+")) == NULL) { > /* Create the file */ > - fd = open(filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR); > + fd = open(filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC, S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR, 0777); > if (fd != -1) { > if (init_str) > write(fd, init_str, strlen(init_str)); Well, with the proper mask set to 0077 this would not be required. If the need to add explicit permissions arise, it'd be 0077 too. Comments are welcome. -- Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]BUG#340 reproducible?
by Matthias Franz 29 Dec '04

29 Dec '04

Hi everybody, I've had a look at BUG#340, but I cannot reproduce it. Can anyone else? If not, one could delete it from the bug list. 340 Impact: soft error At: run time Type: misbehaviour Comments: Dillo doesn't keep www.yahoo.com in the history when going to the "advanced search" link. HTReproduce: Open a new copy of dillo. Go to www.yahoo.com. Click "advanced search". Wait for the page to load, and click the back button. Instead of going to www.yahoo.com, dillo will go to the dillo splash screen. WorkedBy: nobody All the best, -- Matthias Franz Section de Mathématiques, Université de Genève, Suisse

[Dillo-dev]BugTrack
by Jorge Arellano Cid 21 Dec '04

21 Dec '04

Hi, Does anyone know how to make sense and use the bug track entries ranging from #628 to #646? If there's a way it'd be good to fix those, otherwise, it'd be good to remove these entries. -- Cheers Jorge.-
