Hello everyone, This is my first post on this group. I am a novice programmer who wanted to know that can I use GTKDFB for creating a PNG image of any window (browser especially) delivered to the GTKDFB toolkit through a C++ program ? Please someone do let me know at the earliest..... Thanks Sandesh

Why I don't switch from Firefox today
by Jan Stary May 30, 2006

May 30, 2006

Dear Dillo developers, I have been using Dillo since about 0.2.x, and would like to start this email with "Hail Caesar and everything". Thank you! I am really looking forward to the day I replace Firefox with Dillo completely. These are the reasons I won't do it today: 1. Internally, Dillo uses GTK1, which, internally, uses LATIN1. As I am Czech, the last lines of my install process would be $ make install $ strings src/dillo | grep iso8859 $ sed -e 's/iso8859-1/iso8859-2/g;' < ./src/dillo > ~/bin/dillo which happens to work. I suppose that the transition to FLTK will make me able to vies pages in other charsets too. This problem is adressed in http://teki.jpn.ph/pc/software/index-e.shtml#dillo-i18n (Are you guys considering any of the patches included in that?) 2. Lack of CSS support. I am aware of http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.0-css-3.tar.gz (which, BTW, needs to have a few syntax errors fixed before it compiles, see PS). However, it doesn't do much - looking at http://www.dillo.org won't even let me click on the links. 3. Dillo does not have tabbed browsing. I know it's just a convenience, not really related to fast rendering and stuff, but this convenience is just so ... you know, convenient :-) This is also patched into http://teki.jpn.ph/pc/software/index-e.shtml#dillo-i18n After these issues are resolved, you have a converted Firefox user (not that I would use anything else but Dillo for e.g. reading documentation). OTOH, don't waste your time on frames and javascript, everybody knows it's evil. Sincerely Jan PS: Compiling http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.0-css-3.tar.gz on FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE-p7 with gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 [FreeBSD] 20050518 stops with the following errors: In file included from doctree.c:40: css.h:267:8: warning: extra tokens at end of #endif directive doctree.c: In function `Doctree_construct': doctree.c:746: error: label at end of compound statement doctree.c: In function `Doctree_draw_text': doctree.c:806: error: label at end of compound statement The src/css.h ends with #endif __CSS_H__ which I just commented properly, and the empty labels case DW_STYLE_DISPLAY_LAST: /* compiler happiness */ } and case DOCTREE_ELEMENT: /* compiler happiness */ } in src/doctree.c can obviously be deleted. Then it compiles smoothly.

Oriental(?) overlay
by Beartooth May 14, 2006

May 14, 2006

Lately I've been finding many sites covered, or all but covered, with what may be either very dense pictographs, or a version of the stuff printed on the backs or carbons of checks to keep part of the data from being legible on the copies. rpm -q says I'm running dillo-0.8.5-2.fc5 ; on this machine the opening screen doesn't show the version when I open it from another app (It's my default browser.), but when I open it from its icon, it calls itself 0.8.5-i18n-misc. Does that mean I have two conflicting versions installed?? cron does yum update nightly, and I do it manually from time to time. Anyway, what is wrong, and how do I fix it? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert FC5; Pine 4.64, Pan 0.14.2.91; Privoxy 3.0.3; CXO 5.0.1 Dillo 0.8.5, Opera 8.54, Firefox 1.5, Epiphany 2.14 Remember I have little idea what I am talking about.

Re: Dillo Hungarian translation.

I would start it asap, but only if there would be interest from > your side. Yes there is. As you may know, we're working in finishing the port to FLTK2. FLTK2 will allow us to use utf8 characters, and thus i18n and friends will be much easier. The other important point is autoconf stuff to be able to disable all this (embedded devices require apps. to be as lean as possible). While we finish the current prototype tree (not yet publicly available), you may start investigating about i18n: what would it require, how to enable/disable it with autoconf etc, and report me back (I did this research some years ago). The new source tree is very different to the old one (with significative parts in C++ and a new UI module), so there's no point in trying to work on dillo-0.8.6 with a view to port to the new tree. Some research on this topic, and an optional framework for enabling/disabling different translations would be a good contribution you may work on while we finish our prototype. > It would also help me, if you would briefly let me know, > how and where to start... As above. You should also subscribe to dillo-dev and have a this topic discussion there. You may get some help and good advice there. BTW, I'm CC'ing this answer to dillo-dev. -- Cheers Jorge.-

dillo-0.8.6.tar.bz2 is out!!!
by Jorge Arellano Cid May 2, 2006

May 2, 2006

Hi there, dillo-0.8.6.tar.bz2 is finally ready for download. Get it from: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.6.tar.bz2 The announcement will be made hopefully after the RPMs and DEBs are ready. Package maintainers, please let me know when ready. The graphical downloads plugin is the recommended choice for precompiled packages. IMPORTANT NOTE: FLTK2 r4898 or less is recommended. Later snapshots behave unstable. You have been warned. How to get FLTK2: From scratch from svn: svn co -r 4898 http://svn.easysw.com/public/fltk/fltk/trunk/ fltk to an existing svn tree: svn update -r 4898 Please send some feedback. This is the same rc5 tarball (with a 0.8.6 label), but you never know! :-) -- Cheers Jorge.-

When I click on bookmark, I get nowhere. There is an error about libssl.so.5 not found? Or something like that. How did you get this to work on FC5?

Dillo 0.8.5-2.fc5 suddenly having problems as default browser under FC5
by beartooth April 25, 2006

April 25, 2006

Followups set to gmane.comp.web.dillo.devel Dillo 0.8.5-2.fc5 has long been my default -- both in the preference settings for Fedora 4 and now 5, and in the preferences for Pan 0.14.2.91. It seems to've gotten some major changes lately -- possibly through a yum nightly, more likely because of some change I've made in its options, such as telling it my own colors for links visited and unvisited, etc. It worked fine with Pine (either on my own machine, or Pine on a remote machine running under ssh) in which I command "open link" -- for a while longer than in Pan. But Dillo as the default has suddenly (in the last day or so) taken to coming up with only a tiny window, and telling me "ERROR: unable to connect to remote host" in the left bottom corner. I have tried changing the preferences to something else, and back; no joy. If I open Dillo from its icon in the browser drawer on my panel, it tells me "Welcome to Dillo 0.8.5-i18n-misc" -- but rpm -q dillo says dillo-0.8.5-2.fc5. If I type or paste a URL into the location on Dillo as opened from the icon, I also get the error message. (It used to work fine on complete URLs -- ones including "http://" It failed to accept ones showing only "www.<whatever>" but would get them if I opened Dillo and typed or pasted the "www.<whatever> into it and hit enter. Now it fails both ways, with and without the full URL.) Pan still gets other browsers to find its links, if I make the change in its Edit > Preferences > Apps & Mail; Pine does if I change system preferences. Would changing color coding affect ability to browse?? Is FC5 suddenly having troubles passing URLs to Dillo that it didn't have before?? - Beartooth Staffwright, Wordcrafty Squirreler FC5; Pine 4.64, Pan 0.14.2.91; Privoxy 3.0.3; CXO 5.0.1 Dillo 0.8.5, Opera 8.54, Firefox 1.5, Galeon 2.0.1 Remember I have little idea what I am talking about.

another possible ps2 problem with 0.8.6rc5...
by robert w hall April 24, 2006

April 24, 2006

from a thread on the ps2-linux site between linuxlad (me) & cronocloud- anyone else having problems, or see what we're doing wrong??? Read and respond to this message at: https://playstation2-linux.com/forum/message.php?msg_id=49526 By: cronocloud >Why did you need to use gcc3? I got a strange error message at the end of the configure using 2.95.2 it wasn't exactly a "total failure" message but I decided to try it with gcc3 and there was no strange message with that. >I've now compiled wget (both gccs) and rc5 and am >NOT getting things going smoothly. (main.c:362 >get_command failed). Things are not going smooth with my dillo either, intermittent downloader failures, with similar messages as before. When it happens, I have to exit dillo and kill the little dpi bits it leaves behind to have a chance of getting the downloader working again, and even then it still sometimes doesn't work. And logging into these forums with it is basically random, sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't.It just crashed trying to log in. And it still does that "not loading a website all the way" thing it does.on occasion. When that happens, it's usually not very long till it refuses to load pages at all. Then it's exit and kill time. It still doesn't exit cleanly all the time. I'm not really complaining though,because dillo works pretty well the majority of the time. I really do appreciate the devs hard work. snip ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum, the forum is attached to news you submitted, or the post is in direct reply to one of yours.

Google SoC (omg deadline is today!)
by pete＠teamlupus.hu April 24, 2006

April 24, 2006

hi all! Google Summer of Code is out and i think it's a great opportunity for Dillo to gain _paid_ developers. The project is very well presented, i think anybody with more or less knowledge can effectively contribute. Applying for a mentor organization is open for small(er than KDE, Gnome, FF, OOO) projects, too - i can see irssi on the list! more info about this: http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html ---- Péter PS: omg deadline is today! I just saw this, maybe not too late...
