Staying away from the google monster when reasonably possible seems most consistent with the Dillo project's objectives. (To be fair, on one hand, the duckduckgo guy talks, in the context of that project, a lot about privacy and such, but when I've read about what he's been up to in general, he sounds kind of rah-rah-hacker-news-let's-sell- a-start-up-to-a-huge-company-and-be-rich, like he knows the talk to talk.)

Of course, then you risk frustrating users who want/expect Google as the default. I always set the defaults in my software to things the average user would want or expect, even if it differs from my own preferences -- if I want to change it, I can set it in my personal configuration. The way I see it, I'm just a software developer; I'm here to write useful code, not to inflict my way of doing things on the world. Just a thought, ~Benjamin

Yes, after trying both, I strongly tend to a non-filtered search. I was about to ask the same question. Personally, after all these months, I'm all for making non-filtered duckduckgo our default: search_url="http://duckduckgo.com/html?kp=-1&q=%s" (we can move google somewhere after it). -- Cheers Jorge.-

At least in English, it likes to take out anything that can be construed as a rude word, which irritates me -- or sometimes you look up a quotation that does have strong language in it, and it should just give the results instead of acting like you're doing something immoral.

I'm a bit surprised on the lack of them given the flexibility of the feature. BTW, from some time I'm using duckduckgo (see dillorc) as my default search engine. It has served me very well, and recently discovered it also has plenty of handy macros: http://duckduckgo.com/bang.html (just in case you feel like experimenting). -- Cheers Jorge.-

If there's a link at the very top of the viewport and you move the mouse cursor up to the panel, the status output isn't cleared as you leave.

dpi/downloads.cc patch

by mr_semantics＠hotmail.com

Hello all, I have been away for a bit, and had to catch up with some of the mail on the list. Looks like you are moving things along quite nicely! I built the latest version, and I can confirm that Jorges patch for the search dialogue seems to be working nicely. When I built it though, I got a warning from Clang. The following seems to quiet the warning in Clang, and does not seem to generate any issues with gcc for the compile: diff -r 49c3e24bf746 dpi/downloads.cc --- a/dpi/downloads.cc Fri Jul 29 20:19:08 2011 -0400 +++ b/dpi/downloads.cc Sat Jul 30 08:19:02 2011 -0400 @@ -516,7 +516,7 @@ // FSM to remove wget's "dot-progress" (i.e. "^ " || "^[0-9]+K") q = log_text + log_len; - for (p = esc_str; (p - esc_str) < esc_len; ++p) { + for (p = esc_str; (size_t)(p - esc_str) < esc_len; ++p) { switch (log_state) { case ST_newline: if (*p == ' ') { Regards, Rob
