hyphenation in dillo
by sgeerken＠dillo.org 28 Nov '12

28 Nov '12

Hi! At <http://flpsed.org/hgweb/dillo_hyphen/>, you'll find a version of dillo which automatically hyphenates words, using the algorith by Frank Liang (which is also used by TeX). It is still quite messy, but works already rather stable. Some manual work is neccessary (from dillo_hyphen): mkdir /usr/local/lib/dillo/hyphenation cp test/hyph-de-1996.pat /usr/local/lib/dillo/hyphenation/de.pat cp test/hyph-en-us.pat /usr/local/lib/dillo/hyphenation/en.pat For other language, the files in the CTAN should be converted. For playing around, try this one: <http://de.wikisource.org/wiki/Spezial:Zuf%C3%A4llige_Seite> :-) Sebastian

Hi! I just pulled some change to make <pre> work. Please test it again, even things which have worked recently, so that we can be sure that nothing is broken again. Sebastian

experimental code: highlighting and scrolling
by corvid＠lavabit.com 22 Oct '12

I was thinking how unpleasant it is when you are highlighting text and you release the button outside the viewport, and the text doesn't get copied. (Even harder to keep in mind is when the canvas is shorter than the viewport, and you go past the bottom of the canvas.) ..and then I wanted to see whether I could make the page scroll when highlighting outside the viewport like firefox does...

https unpleasantness
by corvid＠lavabit.com 18 Oct '12

I recompiled the https dpi today, and it no longer wanted to work. I had upgraded slackware in recent weeks, so my openssl version has gone from 0.9.8x to 1.0.1c, which may or may not be relevant at all. The SSL_connect() was failing. Adding in some error-printing got me "error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol". The search engine suggested that one possibility was that a server could be displeased with a cipher that's offered, so I changed SSL_set_cipher_list(ssl_connection, "ALL"); to "TLSv1" randomly, and it now worked. https://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html shows lots of possibilities, and I tried "DEFAULT". This worked as well. It sounds like the difference is that the default doesn't include aNULL ciphers. Another page says that aNULL means cipher suites that do not offer authentication. I don't really know what's going on here, obviously.

website readability/appearance

Back in February, I was playing around with the website appearance a bit. Today I happened upon that file again, and I still rather like the look of it. http://www.dillo.org/test/dillo2.html Any thoughts? PS I wonder about the anybrowser gif in the sidebar. It screams 1996 to me.

hyphenation and ideographic characters
by furaisanjin＠gmail.com 08 Oct '12

08 Oct '12

Hi all. After hyphenation feature was merged into main branch, line break doesn't seem to work well for ideographic characters. This is screenshot from 2387:81f484e70da6 (I think this is the last changeset before hyphenation). http://furaisanjin.blog.so-net.ne.jp/_images/blog/_9f7/furaisanjin/1-c9360.… But the current one (2493:f99afbd38ae7) shows something like this. http://furaisanjin.blog.so-net.ne.jp/_images/blog/_9f7/furaisanjin/2-fe1a8.… I added red box to highlight the difference. We had similar problem before adding a_Utf8_ideographic on Html_process_word in html.cc. Hyphenation also needs similar checking. Regards, furaisanjin

copying to clipboard

I was thinking how I sometimes see where newbies suppose that dillo can't copy and paste because they think ctrl-c must be how everything does copying...and I thought I'd find out what it would take to make that work. Some not-scrutinized code attached. There is this circuitous part where control goes from Layout to SelectionState to Layout again to Platform, which isn't too pleasing...

RequestPolicy-like patch
by p37sitdu＠lavabit.com 04 Oct '12

04 Oct '12

Patch implements functions similar to Firefox addon RequestPolicy. [1] It allows user to control automatic requests more flexible than filter_auto_requests option. Patch removes this option and replaces it with file .dillo/domainrc that looks like this: default deny wikipedia.org .wikimedia.org wikisource.org .wikimedia.org wikitionary.org .wikimedia.org wikiversity.org .wikimedia.org That way most requests are denied, but images on wikipedia are loaded from wikimedia.org without clicking on them. Patterns can start with "." to allow subdomains. Special pattern "*" can be used to allow requests to any domains from some domain (for example if it is a website full of external images) or to allow requests from any domain to some domain (maybe CDN). Without domainrc file all cross-domain requests are denied. [1] https://www.requestpolicy.com/
