New feature idea: 'Open link with...' item
by a1ex＠dismail.de April 10, 2024

April 10, 2024

Another feature which could be useful is an 'Open link with...' item. An item in the link menu which runs a command with the link as an argument. For example: Open link with... mpv (open a media stream or yt link) wget (save link/custom download) etc... Commands could be defined in dillorc, or maybe a separate text file is better (like bm.txt)? Any interest in this? Not sure how far I would get, it's probably a bit more complicated than my previous ideas.

[PATCH] Add preference to toggle reverse mouse wheel tab scrolling
by a1ex＠dismail.de April 10, 2024

April 10, 2024

Hello friends, This patch adds a preference to toggle the direction of scrolling tabs with the mouse wheel. I personally find it more intuitive reversed, though others might disagree, thus now there can be a choice :) Regards, Alex --- dillorc Sat Mar 9 18:43:51 2024 +++ dillorc Fri Apr 5 15:30:32 2024 @@ -384,6 +384,9 @@ # If set to NO, the page will be scrolled instead. #scroll_switches_tabs=YES +# Reverse the direction of tab scrolling with mouse wheel. +#scroll_switches_tabs_reverse=YES + # Mouse middle click by default drives drag-scrolling. # To paste an URL into the window instead of scrolling, set it to NO. # Note: You could always paste the URL onto the URL box clear button. --- src/prefs.c Sat Mar 9 18:43:51 2024 +++ src/prefs.c Fri Apr 5 15:32:45 2024 @@ -79,6 +79,7 @@ prefs.middle_click_opens_new_tab = TRUE; prefs.right_click_closes_tab = TRUE; prefs.scroll_switches_tabs = TRUE; + prefs.scroll_switches_tabs_reverse = FALSE; prefs.no_proxy = dStrdup(PREFS_NO_PROXY); prefs.panel_size = P_medium; prefs.parse_embedded_css=TRUE; --- src/prefs.h Sat Mar 9 18:43:51 2024 +++ src/prefs.h Fri Apr 5 15:33:40 2024 @@ -107,6 +107,7 @@ bool_t middle_click_opens_new_tab; bool_t right_click_closes_tab; bool_t scroll_switches_tabs; + bool_t scroll_switches_tabs_reverse; bool_t search_url_idx; Dlist *search_urls; char *save_dir; --- src/prefsparser.cc Sat Mar 9 18:43:51 2024 +++ src/prefsparser.cc Fri Apr 5 15:35:19 2024 @@ -192,6 +192,7 @@ PREFS_BOOL, 0 }, { "right_click_closes_tab", &prefs.right_click_closes_tab, PREFS_BOOL, 0 }, { "scroll_switches_tabs", &prefs.scroll_switches_tabs, PREFS_BOOL, 0 }, + { "scroll_switches_tabs_reverse", &prefs.scroll_switches_tabs_reverse, PREFS_BOOL, 0 }, { "no_proxy", &prefs.no_proxy, PREFS_STRING, 0 }, { "panel_size", &prefs.panel_size, PREFS_PANEL_SIZE, 0 }, { "parse_embedded_css", &prefs.parse_embedded_css, PREFS_BOOL, 0 }, --- src/uicmd.cc Sat Mar 9 18:43:51 2024 +++ src/uicmd.cc Fri Apr 5 15:41:30 2024 @@ -254,7 +254,11 @@ int dy = Fl::event_dy(); int dir = dy ? dy : dx; - if (dir > 0) + if (dir > 0 && prefs.scroll_switches_tabs_reverse) + prev_tab(); + else if (dir > 0) + next_tab(); + else if (dir < 0 && prefs.scroll_switches_tabs_reverse) next_tab(); else if (dir < 0) prev_tab();

[PATCH] Reverse scroll wheel tab switching
by Rodrigo Arias April 5, 2024

April 5, 2024

Hi Alex, We have a mailing list for patches at <dillo-dev(a)mailman3.com>, maybe I should add a comment to the README too. Regarding your patch, I find that behavior unintuitive :-) But we shouldn't expect people to agree on those, so I think this should be implemented as a configuration option. Check the PR of the tab switching[1] to see how to add another option yourself. [1]: https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/pull/62/files Otherwise I can work on it after the 3.1.0 release. I opened an issue: https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/issues/122 Best, Rodrigo. ----- Forwarded message from Alex ----- Hello, In my opinion the behavior of the mouse wheel tab switching is backwards. Scrolling up switches to the previous tab, and down goes to the next tab. This seems unintuitive and I find myself frequently scrolling in the wrong direction. Sorry I don't have a github account to do a pull request, but here is a diff that reverses the direction: --- uicmd.cc Fri Apr 5 10:59:06 2024 +++ uicmd.cc Fri Apr 5 10:59:21 2024 @@ -255,9 +255,9 @@ int dir = dy ? dy : dx; if (dir > 0) - next_tab(); - else if (dir < 0) prev_tab(); + else if (dir < 0) + next_tab(); ret = 1; } Dillo for life!

Doxygen documentation online
by Rodrigo Arias March 9, 2024

March 9, 2024

Hi, I added the Doxygen documentation in the main website, with the Doxygen Awesome theme: https://dillo-browser.github.io/doxygen/index.html Here is the main overview: https://dillo-browser.github.io/doxygen/dw-overview.html It also includes the documentation of most C functions that was not being included due to "/*" comments instead of "/**" at the beginning of the functions. It is rendered directly from the Dillo git repository weekly, until I figure how to trigger a pipeline in a different repo. It seems Doxygen is injecting some Javascript for the index, but I think there may be a way to avoid it so it can be properly read in Dillo itself. For now I'm leaving it as-is. Best, Rodrigo.

New mailing list for Dillo
by Rodrigo Arias Jan. 28, 2024

Jan. 28, 2024

Hi all, The people at mailman3.com has agreed on hosting Dillo mailing list free of charge as part of their open-source program (thanks for the pointer Charles), for which I'm very grateful :-) With the help of Andreas, I have put together most of the mailing list archives I could gather from the old server, although there are some posts and attachments missing. The objective of this list is to continue the discussion for the development of Dillo[1] and related topics, in the same way dillo-dev was used before but with moderation to keep a friendly tone. [1]: https://dillo-browser.github.io/ The GitHub platform[2] is used for now to hold the repository, store issues and to run the CI tests, until a more suitable platform is available. [2]: https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo I hope we can finally made the 3.1 release soon (as in the next month), so distributions can get the new release (after years) in their package repositories. Best regards, Rodrigo.

patch for dillo and openssl 1.1
by itsme_410＠yahoo.com Sept. 16, 2017

Sept. 16, 2017

Hello, Dillo's https stopped working on F26. It turned out that that was because of the move to openssl v1.1. The kind folks (in particular Matias Ellert) made a patch for F26 which works for both the old version of dillo with openssl v1.0 and v1.1. I am including his patch here in case there is interest in merging this upstream (which is the best place to put it). Best wishes!

Access forbidden to the mail-list archives
by rodarima＠gmail.com Sept. 3, 2017

Sept. 3, 2017

Hello, I was trying to access the mail-list archive found here: http://lists.dillo.org/pipermail/dillo-dev/ But I get a 403 response: > Forbidden > You don't have permission to access /pipermail/dillo-dev/ on this server. I can access to the old archives at: https://www.dillo.org/oldmail/ I would like to read previous discussions between 2002 and now. BTW, is there any simple way to open a url in a new tab, on a running dillo instance, from the command line? It would be interesting something like dillo --newtab 'https://www.google.com/' Thanks, Rodrigo.
