An important consideration is to be able to quickly forward good requests or responses, so we reduce the overhead in overall browsing. We could probably just hook it to >= 400 and then you handle those broken responses as you want, while quickly forwarding 200 to Dillo: match http-status-code >= 400 action broken-page I think we may need to define several "tables" like in iptables so we can have rules that handle the traffic at different stages. This one doesn't require decoding the compressed content. >I've already got the Wayback Machine set up as a search option >in dillorc which returns the latest archived copy of a URL: >search_url="w Wayback Machine http://web.archive.org/web/%s" > >But I use it so much that the ease of just clicking a link would be >a real advantage, especially after opening multiple broken links >from a page.

In addition to HTTP header feilds, it would be handy to assign rewrite rules according to HTTP status codes. I spend a lot of time browsing dead/dying websites so I'm always using the Wayback Machine. I'd like to use this system to process 404 (500, etc.) error pages through a program/script that adds a link at the top to look up the URL at the Wayback Machine. It might also check for a copy I've archived locally, if I get my website archives more organised, and link to that as well. I've already got the Wayback Machine set up as a search option in dillorc which returns the latest archived copy of a URL: search_url="w Wayback Machine http://web.archive.org/web/%s" But I use it so much that the ease of just clicking a link would be a real advantage, especially after opening multiple broken links from a page. I might even try to write something that detects archived error pages and works back to the last actual copy of the page.

Your idea of an "appearance" bar sounds interesting. I was originally thinking it would be neat to have the zoom buttons on the bottom next to the bugmeter, similar to what you are suggesting. Since that sounds more like a long-term goal, I have come up with a patch to create a dedicated zoom button on the toolbar. Left-click zooms in, right-click zooms out. Its just a proof of concept, but if you like the idea, maybe I could polish it up and make an optional setting for it, etc. Here you go: diff -u ./pixmaps.h mod/pixmaps.h --- ./pixmaps.h Sat Jul 6 18:03:43 2024 +++ mod/pixmaps.h Sat Jul 6 18:23:27 2024 @@ -1410,6 +1410,28 @@ }; /* XPM */ +static const char *const zoom_xpm[] = { +"16 16 2 1", +" c None", +"@ c gray70", +" ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@@@@@@@@@@@@ ", +" @@@@@@@@@@@@@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" @@ ", +" "}; + +/* XPM */ static const char *const new_s_xpm[] = { "11 11 35 1", " c None", diff -u ./ui.cc mod/ui.cc --- ./ui.cc Sat Jul 6 18:26:52 2024 +++ mod/ui.cc Sat Jul 6 18:03:57 2024 @@ -38,7 +38,7 @@ struct iconset { Fl_Image *ImgMeterOK, *ImgMeterBug, - *ImgHome, *ImgReload, *ImgSave, *ImgBook, *ImgTools, + *ImgHome, *ImgReload, *ImgSave, *ImgBook, *ImgTools, *ImgZoom, *ImgClear,*ImgSearch, *ImgHelp, *ImgLeft, *ImgLeftIn, *ImgRight, *ImgRightIn, *ImgStop, *ImgStopIn; }; @@ -51,6 +51,7 @@ new Fl_Pixmap(save_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(bm_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(tools_xpm), + new Fl_Pixmap(zoom_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(new_s_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(search_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(help_xpm), @@ -70,6 +71,7 @@ new Fl_Pixmap(save_s_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(bm_s_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(tools_s_xpm), + new Fl_Pixmap(zoom_xpm), new Fl_Pixmap(new_s_xpm), standard_icons.ImgSearch, standard_icons.ImgHelp, @@ -356,6 +358,13 @@ wid->y() + wid->h()); } break; + case UI_ZOOM: + if (b == FL_LEFT_MOUSE) { + a_UIcmd_zoom_in(a_UIcmd_get_bw_by_widget(wid)); + } else if (b == FL_RIGHT_MOUSE) { + a_UIcmd_zoom_out(a_UIcmd_get_bw_by_widget(wid)); + } + break; default: break; } @@ -433,6 +442,7 @@ Stop = make_button("Stop", icons->ImgStop, icons->ImgStopIn, UI_STOP); Bookmarks = make_button("Book", icons->ImgBook, NULL, UI_BOOK); Tools = make_button("Tools", icons->ImgTools, NULL, UI_TOOLS); + Zoom = make_button("Zoom", icons->ImgZoom, NULL, UI_ZOOM); Back->set_tooltip("Previous page"); Forw->set_tooltip("Next page"); @@ -442,6 +452,7 @@ Stop->set_tooltip("Stop loading"); Bookmarks->set_tooltip("View bookmarks"); Tools->set_tooltip("Settings"); + Tools->set_tooltip("Zoom"); } /** diff -u ./ui.hh mod/ui.hh --- ./ui.hh Sat Jul 6 18:03:43 2024 +++ mod/ui.hh Sat Jul 6 18:03:57 2024 @@ -23,6 +23,7 @@ UI_STOP, UI_BOOK, UI_TOOLS, + UI_ZOOM, UI_CLEAR, UI_SEARCH } UIButton; @@ -125,7 +126,7 @@ CustGroupVertical *TopGroup; CustButton *Back, *Forw, *Home, *Reload, *Save, *Stop, *Bookmarks, - *Tools, *Clear, *Search, *Help, *BugMeter, *FileButton; + *Tools, *Zoom, *Clear, *Search, *Help, *BugMeter, *FileButton; CustGroupHorizontal *LocBar, *NavBar, *StatusBar; Fl_Input *Location; CustProgressBox *PProg, *IProg; Regards, Alex

Re: extra /tmp on file name line when save html

by pastebin＠gmx.com

Hi, Thanks Rodrigo for working with Albrecht-S i think this issue is now resolved for me when saving an html 1. if i like the highlightd name given in the Filename: box i just click 'ok' 2. if i want to add more text or suffix to the highlighted name given in the Filename: box i just hit 'end' key (easier then using mouse click in filename box) and enter what i want 3, if i want to enter a completely new name to save in save_dir (problem being dillo enters /tmp now) i don't know if changing rc = chdir("/tmp"); to rc = chdir("/html"); in src/paths.cc is what you meant by your suggestion : > One option to work around it is to chdir() to the save_dir, so at least > it would make a bit more sense. but by doing so now it now puts /html/'firstkeypressed' an i can put the name i want there (i didn't know how to put the save_dir variable there instead of my hardcoded "/html" which would be better) (i get make error ->? save_dir not defined in this scope) so all seems fixed - for me anyway thank Albrecht-S for his work and interesting posts in the https://github.com/fltk/fltk/issues/1004#issuecomment-2210810570 i think the only issue left here is Albrecht-S saying that hitting '/' leaves a '/' there my hitting the '/' key just erases highlight and leaves nothing in the filename box :) On Sat, 6 Jul 2024 14:10:22 +0200 Rodrigo Arias <rodarima(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > >the problem is 2 parts > >in dillo - switching from the savedir to /tmp dir when first 'd' > >pressed and then repeating /tmp/d/tmp/d when another 'd' is pressed > > > >the fix only fixes the repeat to /tmp/d/tmp/d when a second d is > >pressed but the changing from savedir to /tmp/d still happens when > >first d is pressed > > > >your program only shows the second part of the problem (and that part > >is fixed) since it does the chdir("/tmp") itself and not what happens > >with dillo when the first 'd' is pressed > > > >the fix only fixes the repeat not the initial change to /tmp dir from > >the savedir > > This is a "design" decision by FLTK[1], as when a non-/ character is > added it is considered as a relative path *to the current directory* > which is always set to /tmp in Dillo (regardless of the save_dir) and it > gets prefixed. > > [1]: https://github.com/fltk/fltk/issues/1004#issuecomment-2210810570 > > One option to work around it is to chdir() to the save_dir, so at least > it would make a bit more sense. yes i edited src/paths.cc rc = chdir("/html"); // rc = chdir("/tmp"); > Another good idea is to switch to the native file chooser which also > comes with other niceties (but this problem will continue there if the > native file chooser is not available). what source is the 'native file chooser' in? > Rodrigo. > _______________________________________________ > Dillo-dev mailing list -- dillo-dev(a)mailman3.com > To unsubscribe send an email to dillo-dev-leave(a)mailman3.com

Re: Feature idea: zoom buttons

by Rodrigo Arias

Hi Alex, >Here is a patch which allows zooming in and out using the Refresh >button. Right clicking on it zooms the page in. Middle clicking zooms >out. It's not especially intuitive, but it's simple and it works. I agree is not very intuitive, maybe using the scroll wheel may be more clear. But still, tying it to the refresh button is weird to me. On the other hand, I like that you can see the whole page while changing the zoom level using the mouse (which doesn't happen in other browsers). I'm thinking if it could make sense to add another "appearance" bar (usually hidden) like the "find text" where we can put some knobs to change the page appearance, like the zoom buttons or sliders but also maybe some of the CSS options too. I think this would also make more sense if we can select multiple "user" styles to implement some king of reader mode, as you will want to see the effect without covering the canvas. Rodrigo.

[1]: https://github.com/fltk/fltk/issues/1004#issuecomment-2210810570 One option to work around it is to chdir() to the save_dir, so at least it would make a bit more sense. Another good idea is to switch to the native file chooser which also comes with other niceties (but this problem will continue there if the native file chooser is not available). Rodrigo.

Just started playing with Dillo. Nice work. Can't wait to see where it's going. Keep up the good work. I have a feeling I and soon, many people will be using it to get away from the bloat rubbish that most browsers have become. Again, nice work. Cheers, Kate Draven
