Strange mouse/keyboard issues

by james＠bsdgroup.org

Hello everyone, I have two somewhat similar issues related to dillo and losing keyboard/mouse focus. This could be an issue with fltk2. The first involves mouse clicks registering on different buttons. When running e17 if you start dillo in one virtual screen then switch to another and then back again, when you a user tried to click the back button instead the forward/home button was highlighted. The problem was fixed by forcing the dillo window to redraw. The second issue involves running dillo with dwm in one tag then switching to another tag and then back again. This time keystrokes seem to get lost. To fix this problem I have to toggle the dwm meta key (in my case this is the windows key, but it could be ctrl or alt instead). Has anyone else seen similar issues? Thanks. -- James Turner BSD Group Consulting http://www.bsdgroup.org

Neither does my search function. Since I've been running Pine for years, I have a .pinerc rather than an .alpinerc; but I don't find anything like what you say there, either. > If you have something like this in your mailcap: > (all in one line) > > text/html; /usr/local/bin/dillo -l -f '%s'; description=HTML Text; \ > test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.html > > it works with dillo1. About now, I should probably mention that I do my email different ways from different addresses. The main one is remote. It does open links that include "http://" -- in dillo *here*, not on the remote machine -- but not ones without. The same is also true when I run Alpine against the address I'm using at this moment. > Something like: > > text/html; /usr/local/bin/dillo -l -f -x XID '%s'; description=HTML Text; \ > test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.html I'm guessing that I should c&p that into my .pinerc somewhere, or into the interface Alpine gives me by typing M > S > C (Main menu to Setup to Configure); but I don't know where. > makes dillo1 exit, so it doesn't work. > Reason: XID should be a number containing a window ID, where dillo should > embed itself, not a literal string!

more css progress

by Johannes.Hofmann＠gmx.de

Hi, the dillo-css-prototype is now able to parse a user stylesheet from ~/.dillo/style.css if it exists. This allows to modify the appearance in various ways. Currently I have the following in my ~/.dillo/style.css: body {margin-left: 10mm; margin-top: 10mm; background-color: #F5F5F5;} :link {color: gray !important; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bolder; } :visited {color: olive !important; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bolder; } Note that I'm no designer so the result may hurt your eyes! Cheers, Johannes

css progress

by Johannes.Hofmann＠gmx.de

Hi, I just pushed my latest changes to the css prototype repository. The css parser from dillo-0.8.0-css-3 is now integrated and working. The user agent style is parsed from a char buffer (see CssContext::buildUserAgentStyle() in css.cc). Of course the code is still full of bugs and missing stuff, but it shows that things basically work as expected. This is starting to be fun! Cheers, Johannes

Here are 2 png pictures when I visit http://ja.wikipedia.org This is from original dillo2.0. http://furaisanjin.blog.so-net.ne.jp/_images/blog/_9f7/furaisanjin/1-02b9e.… Red surrounded part has a long line without line break and it doesn't fit on page width. This is from modified dillo2.0. http://furaisanjin.blog.so-net.ne.jp/_images/blog/_9f7/furaisanjin/2.png Blue surrounded part is table and rows are really narrow. Regards, furaisanjin

It looks like Japanese is that > way as well. Yes, dillo doesn't handle Japanese either when a line is long and doesn't have break on it. I modified html_process_word so that each Japanese word is added by addText. In this way appearance is better but sometimes table looks bad. Regards, furaisanjin

dillo people: It turns out that dillo handles Chinese quite badly because the text doesn't contain whitespace (BUG 827). It looks like Japanese is that way as well. 1) People using East Asian languages: Does this do roughly the right thing? I've read that there are picky rules about certain individual characters, but I just mean in general here. 2) Thoughts on optimization are welcomed. littlebat: For some reason, I was thinking that whitespace was required between words in dillo, but I misremembered. littlebat wrote: > Hi, > Thanks for the work on Dillo. > > I think it isn't a good idea to resolve long chinese line wrapping > problem by inserting space after punctuation mark("?" or "?" or "?", > etc..). > > Here is a "Dillo2 Wrap Long Chinese Line Test" page: > http://www.learndiary.com/en/dillo2-wrap-long-chinese-line-test.htm . > Open it with Firefox or IE, then open it with Dillo2, You will see the > different of wrapping long chinese line between them. > > Note, unlike english, there is no space between Chinese characters.
