Delayed release
by Jorge Arellano Cid 25 Apr '03

25 Apr '03

Hi there, I just commited the code that cleanups the bookmarks server. It works like this: <q> /* * If this is our first run, kill the (old) bookmarks server, * and create the '~/.dillo/.072' file to flag what we did. */ static void Dillo_check_bm_srv12(char *dir) [...] </q> Yes, it uses the "[b]m_srv12" trick and some other precautions. Please test it: the whole point is that when installing the new version of dillo (072), the old bookmarks server may keep running and survive the updated. The new code detects the first dillo-072 run and issues a kill command to "bm_srv12". Onto another topic: A last minute leak fix (iterators) left dillo a bit unstable. We knew the iterators had a leak and it's great to have found it. Now it will take some extra time to try to fix the problem and, after that, stress-test the Copy&Paste code again. We haven't got an accurate procedure to reproduce the crash (yet). This explanation may help: <q> I think I have found a relatively new segfault bug : You need some sort of thumbtags like the screenshots on http://www.incagold.com/products/Speed/speedthief.php Now you have to move down the mouse and at the same time click on one image (i.e. click while still aiming for the image). If the button-push occures outside the image and the button-release inside the image, chances are high to get a segfault. This is a bit hard to reproduce, but I couldn't get an older version with selection to behave like that. It also happened a few times to me last night (after the last 'cvs up') but never before. </q> We'll be working on it. Cheers Jorge.-

Cookie locks?
by Lars Clausen 25 Apr '03

25 Apr '03

I understand unrestricted access to cookie jars can be bad for your health, but it's annoying that you can't have two Dillos using cookies at the same time. I usually have a Dillo running permanently, and when I get a URL in my mail, I can click on it to open another Dillo (quickly!) -- but that Dillo can't use cookies, which is frequently (e.g. in bugzilla) necessary. Could we do a write-lock on it? -Lars -- Lars Clausen (http://shasta.cs.uiuc.edu/~lrclause)| Hårdgrim of Numenor "I do not agree with a word that you say, but I |---------------------------- will defend to the death your right to say it." | Where are we going, and --Evelyn Beatrice Hall paraphrasing Voltaire | what's with the handbasket?

[PATCH] Pth library support for threads
by Patrice Mandin 24 Apr '03

24 Apr '03

Hello dillo coders, I made a simple patch to add pth support for threads for Dillo. So platforms that do not have the pthread library can also use it. I am not very clever regarding thread programming, it may needs a bit more of work. I tested it on very simple pages and it worked for me. -- Patrice Mandin WWW: http://membres.lycos.fr/pmandin/ Programmeur Linux, Atari Spécialité: Développement, jeux

Vera
by Andreas Zwinkau 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

ave There is this new truetype font Bitstream Vera, which looks very nice IMHO. Example: http://www.bitstream.com/categories/products/fonts/vera/ Download: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/ttf-bitstream-vera/1.10/ Is it possible to use it in Dillo? I tried to add this in the dillorc vw_fontname="Bitstream Vera Sans" fw_fontname="Bitstream Vera Sans Mono" But then everything had the same font size. <H1> the same size and weight as <H§3> etc. -- Andreas Zwinkau | web: andi.dasstellenwirinsinternet.de | mail: andi(a)buxach.de | jabber: beza1e1(a)amessage.de

Unix domain sockets
by Jorge Arellano Cid 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

Hi there! This question is for Unix domain sockets savvy guys. When a server that listens on a UDS has started and its socket's filename is removed from the filesystem. Is it notified somehow, maybe with a SIGPIPE signal or something? or not? I ask because when dillo-0.7.2 is out, the old bm_srv12 MUST be removed (but it may remain sleeping in memory when the binary is updated). It'd be good to be able to remove it indirectly by making it react to an 'unlink' call on its socket (well, from this release and on). For the 0.7.1.2 bm_srv12, I'm considering `fuser -k bm_srv12` and a hackish: <dpi cmd='bye' (without the closing ">" an exit(1) is forced!) Anyone? :-) Cheers Jorge.-

External viewers patch
by Lars Clausen 23 Apr '03

23 Apr '03

Attached is an updated version of my old external viewers patch. It's pretty rough, in that it'll just pick the first thing it finds in /etc/mailcap for a viewer, but I've used it for a long time now and it's made Dillo much more usable for me. -Lars -- Lars Clausen (http://shasta.cs.uiuc.edu/~lrclause)| Hårdgrim of Numenor "I do not agree with a word that you say, but I |---------------------------- will defend to the death your right to say it." | Where are we going, and --Evelyn Beatrice Hall paraphrasing Voltaire | what's with the handbasket?

dillo-0.7.1 (fwd)
by Jorge Arellano Cid 22 Apr '03

22 Apr '03

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sat, 19 Apr 2003 12:40:31 -0300 (BRT) From: Frank Hrebabetzky <frankh(a)terra.com.br> To: jcid(a)softhome.net Subject: dillo-0.7.1 I folks, It is just to tell you that it is really a decent piece of software that you have written. It is lean, fast and free. For web browsing and writing of simple html texts, I use mozilla. But I was looking for a reader for documentation written in html, and loading mozilla takes far too long for that. So - congratulations. Should you ever decide to inflate dillo to a full fledged web browser, stuffed with all kind of gizmos, please keep offering a small, fast version such as the actual one. Cheers Frank ------------------------------------------------- Frank Hrebabetzky Tel.: +55 / 48 / 235 1106 Florianopolis +55 / 48 / 9998 7686 Brazil email: frankh(a)terra.com.br

bookmarks server bug?
by Jorge Arellano Cid 17 Apr '03

17 Apr '03

Hi there! Yesterday peter sent me this message: <q> Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2003 15:21:22 +0800 From: Peter <pfheiss(a)philonline.com> To: Jorge Arellano Cid <jcid(a)softhome.net> Subject: Re: Dillo Marking Text jcid(a)softhome.net said: >> The bookmark program in 0.7.1 is still buggy. > This doesn't help. > Please say why or how it's buggy. OK, when trying to add more bookmarks and going back and forth with the page arrows or "," ".", after the third or so addition of URL to the bookmark dillo is gone. I add the end of the log below if that helps. thr:: [thrID:1108533232] thr:: trying to lock mutex thr:: mutex locked! thr:: Buf1:(nil) Buf2:(nil) LastChunk:0 Done:0 thr:: going to cond_wait... thr:: trying to lock mutex thr:: mutex locked! thr:: Buf1:(nil) Buf2:0x80f8640 LastChunk:0 Done:0 thr:: Buf1:0x80f8640 Buf2:(nil) LastChunk:0 Done:0 thr:: mutex unlocked! thr:: St=35 thr:: going to cond_wait...

Segmentation fault Regards -- Peter </q> He is using 0.7.1.2, and I can't reproduce the bug here. As bug reports for the bookmarks server stopped a long time ago, I tend to think it is a problem with his settings (maybe an older server not upgraded, or repeated instances, or the old sever still in ~/.dillo/ ...), but who knows? Can anyone reproduce it? If there's a bug, it should be fixed before 0.7.2 release. Thanks Jorge.-
