Dillo MS Windows Port
by rogerx.oss＠gmail.com Jan. 23, 2016

Jan. 23, 2016

I spent some time last night examining the Dillo Windows port, as well as the DPLus version. The DPlus version has multiple patches for extra (likely not-needed?) features atop of the Windows port. So further limited my research to the Dillo Windows port to see what was only needed for Dillo to be functionally compiled on Windows platforms under Mingw. Performing a "diff -urN" on the Windows port against the vanilla Dillo-1.3.0, showed at the very end some stuff concerning socks.h/winsock2.h portability. There were other modifications, but not sure if those were really needed. Would appear they performed a lot of work, and it's sad to see the work just being ignored. Would be nice to see some basic portability for Windows integrated. However, basic and standardized work that is clean and can be integrated within the main Dillo tree. Would appear the DPlus version work went further with extra features, and can easily understand why they were likely not wanted within the main Dillo tree. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/

Ctrl to open links in new tab or new window
by dennisn＠dennisn.mooo.com Jan. 12, 2016

Jan. 12, 2016

Currently in dillorc there is "middle_click_opens_new_tab" which controls whether links that are middle clicked open in a new tab or a new window. How about allowing the ability to open it /the other way/ when that middle click is accompanied by, say, the CTRL button? (Instead of having to dig through the right-click menus to do this.) This can be trivially done by changing line 759 of html.cc (in dillo 3.0.5) to be something like: if (prefs.middle_click_opens_new_tab != (event->state == CONTROL_MASK))

Increase Menu Font
by rogerx.oss＠gmail.com Jan. 5, 2016

Jan. 5, 2016

What hinders me from using Dillo more often, the menu font is quite relatively small compared to my monitor/display DPI or monitor/display size. I have a Dell U2713HM-IPS-LED Monitor, and usually find I have to increase the font size on most web pages. However, the menu GUI font should be relatively easy to increase, including when using DWM & DMenu here. However, increasing (or even decreasing) Dillo's menu font size may require editing system (ie. /usr) GTKRC/QTRC file settings? Should this not be something exported from FLTK, with a variable set within the dillorc file? Although there is a panel_size variable, the variable has always been set to large here within even my 19 inch monitors, and still proving to be still quite small compared to the size of the 19 inch monitors. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/

Enabling Javascript
by berenger.morel＠neutralite.org Nov. 23, 2015

Nov. 23, 2015

Hello. First, sorry if this mailing list is not the good place to ask this, but it is the only way to contact dillo users that I have seen on the website (no IRC chan, forum, user mailing-list or.... only this dev ml). I am discovering dillo (at least a browser which does not eat all memory and take ages to start! Thanks for that guys.) and I have noticed that there might be a partial implementation of JS support ( it is yellow in http://www.dillo.org/Plans.html and there are bits of info there http://lists.dillo.org/pipermail/dillo-dev/2009-May/006434.html ). So, is this stuff in the current source tree, and if yes, how to enable it (compiling dillo won't be a problem if it is needed)? Thanks.

Chinese and french characters in web pages
by cjarry＠cjarry.org Oct. 18, 2015

Oct. 18, 2015

Dear Dillo developers, First of all, I want to thank you for the great web browser dillo is: it is very fast, has most of the features I want and the rendering is improving greatly (I am using hg version currently). I would like to use dillo to view web pages written in chinese and also pages written in french. Currently, I cannot do both. To view web pages in chinese, I set the following fonts in my .dillo/dillorc: font_serif="WenQuanYi Bitmap Song" font_sans_serif="WenQuanYi Bitmap Song" The problem is that french characters like ?, ? or ? are not displayed with this font. To view web pages in french, I set the following fonts: font_serif="DejaVu Serif" font_sans_serif="DejaVu Sans" But then, chinese characters are displayed as empty squares. Is there a way to read both languages in the same instance of dillo? Thanks, Christophe

Downloading user agent
by andreas＠kemnade.info Sept. 23, 2015

Sept. 23, 2015

Hi, I am thinking about the User-Agent which is sent during downloads. Some sites block wget, probably because they do not want to learn robots.txt and do not like a tool doing massdownloads. So if you use dillo to download from such sites, you get a 403 forbidden. If wget would use dillo as user-agent (can be set via a parameter) in such cases, there would be no problem and it is not really wrong. Regards, Andreas

Font blacklist
by sgeerken＠dillo.org Sept. 16, 2015

Sept. 16, 2015

Hi! After a dist upgrade to Debian Jessie some rather ugly fonts got installed, which make reading texts tedious. A possible workaround is attached: a blacklist for fonts (not yet committed). What do you think? Sebastian PS: strcasecmp may not be portable.

Setting the filename of a PDF response
by fusionfile＠gmail.com Sept. 15, 2015

Sept. 15, 2015

I'm working on a web page with a form which generates a PDF document in memory and returns it to the user. In the response header I have set Content-Type: application/pdf Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="foo.pdf" However, Dillo seems to ignore the specified filename and instead uses the URL base name plus query string as the default filename in the download dialog window. Any suggestions? -- August

wrapper script to allow reading *.maff
by plmalternate＠gmail.com Sept. 9, 2015

Sept. 9, 2015

Some of y'all might find this useful. If you put it in your path, you can invoke it "dill filename" or make it the default ap for maffs or regular htm(l)s for that matter. It lets Dillo read the Mozilla Archive File Format (*.maff) files. Maffs are pretty nice - if you haven't played with them you might like to try it. Here is the body of the file if you find that more convenient than the attachment: #!/bin/bash # if the argument ends in ".maff" if [ "$(echo "$1" | rev | cut -c1-5 | rev)" = ".maff" ]; then DIR="/tmp/dillo_maff_unzpped/$(date +%s%N)" mkdir -p "$DIR" unzip "$1" -d "$DIR" SUBDIR="$(ls "$DIR")" dillo "$DIR/$SUBDIR/index.html" || dillo "$DIR/$SUBDIR/index.htm" rm -r "$DIR" else dillo "$1" fi
