[PATCH] smart bookmarks
by Tomas Styblo Oct. 6, 2003

Oct. 6, 2003

Hello. I created a patch that adds Mozilla-like "Smart Bookmarks". Smart bookmarks make searching on the web much more convenient. There are two patches attached to this message. The first one is for vanilla dillo 0.7.3, the second one is for dillo 0.7.3 patched with the tabs/frames patch and the SSL patch. The following sample configuration lines should be added to your dillorc file: #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # SMART BOOKMARKS SECTION #------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Use "g dillo" as the URL to search google for "dillo". # The keyword may consist only of alpha-numeric characters and must be # separated from the URL with a semicolon. The URL must contain # the "%s" sequence, which will be replaced with the parameter following # the keyword. smart_bookmark="g;http://www.google.com/search?&q=%s" smart_bookmark="fm;http://freshmeat.net/search/?q=%s&section=projects" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SNIP ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hopefully someone will find the patch useful. Thank you all for your work. -- Tomas Styblo <tripie(a)cpan.org> PGP: C97EA4B6 / 817E B8A8 1AFD 3256 3181 A730 85CF 7BEB C97E A4B6

Dillo Configuration
by Ringwraith Oct. 3, 2003

Oct. 3, 2003

I'd first like to say thanks for Dillo, its sooo great loading the complete list of CPAN modules in less than 2 seconds, as compared with the nice 5 to 10 seconds with mozilla/firebird :) I do not know if this has been discussed but: One thing I noticed, as Dillo matures, it will obviously need a configuration/preferences menu. I am really starting to get pissed off (pardon lang) at how other browsers use the standard toolkit based widgets to do their configuration. This, IMHO, with the features of today's browsers, clutters up the user interface and causes bloat with the browser. I think having a PURE html interface to doing web browser configuration would do two important things: 1. Gives the flexibility to have a feature rich browser while maintain simplicity. It is a web browser, 90% of the user interface is a web page, so why not make the GUI something the user is familiar with. 2. Reduces bloat. IMHO not so much importantly, 3. Allows for nice customization (themes) of the user interface by someone who knows HTML and vi w/o having to recompile dillo. ;) I am considering to attempt to make a module for the configuration of Dillo that will do this: 1. Configure all aspect of the browser including the (upcoming?) plugin support. 2. Allow pluggable configuration. If plugins have any configurable options (sometimes they do), they will also be configurable using the interface. This module would be accessed through something like: config:// or about:config (i like config:// much better) It would obviously have some security built in so that no one can pull a IE type trick on us and be able to do things they shouldn't. Anyhow this is just a brainstorm, what are your thoughts on doing something like this?

tab/frame patch ver. 10 makes huge binary?
by Mike Eriksen Oct. 3, 2003

Oct. 3, 2003

Hi I've been running Dillo 0.7.3 from a rpm on a Redhat 9.0 for a while, but wanted to try out the tab/frame patch. So I downloaded the Dillo tarball, applied the patch, ran configure, make and make install. No problem. Since the tarball suggest /usr/local/bin and the rpm-version /usr/bin I'm able to have both versions simultaneously. However: *** ls -lh /usr/bin/dillo -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 297K <blah blah> ls -lh /usr/local/bin/dillo -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3.4M <blah blah> *** A twelve fold increase in size!!!!? Obviously I did something stupid, but what? Gcc is 3.2.2. Mike -- Thinstation FAQ maintainer http://thinstation.sourceforge.net - a light, full featured linux based thin client OS

See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.dillo.devel/1108 Just use the right paths for the Dillo source, and update the version number on the patch. (Also, be sure you're using the right version of the patch - if you've downloaded Dillo 0.7.3, use the patch for 0.7.3. If you're using a CVS snapshot, use the patch for CVS.) -- Kelson Vibber www.hyperborea.org

Yes or No: optional compilation of 'extra' features
by Frank de Lange Sept. 28, 2003

Sept. 28, 2003

Hi'all, Those of you who have tried my tab/frames patch will know that I usually make all 'extra' features optional. This allows those who {do not {need|like}|can not afford} those features to leave them out of the resulting binary. However, it also makes the code somewhat more complex, as the optional features are enabled/disabled through conditional compilation (#ifdef/#ifndef....#endif). The space saved by leaving out tabs and frames is currently about 25 kilobytes (Kib, kB, KB, choose your acronym...). I have gotten some comments on this, suggesting the removal of these conditional statements. This way, Dillo would ALWAYS have the extra features (tabs and frames). Before I say 'yes' or 'no' to these suggestions, I'd like to know what your thoughts are on this. So, speak up. Have a look at the code (look for #ifdef XHTML_DTD_... and #ifndef DISABLE_FRAMES) and tell me whether the savings in space are worth the added complexity... BTW, I do not mind either way... As always, look for the patch at http://www.geocities.com/ikbenfrank A new patch, with some new functionality (sorry Sebastian, functionality was added before you asked me not to add anything new...) will be ready soon. It improves upon the way frame margins are handled, adds an alternative for the find and load popup menu, and includes 'find as you type' (or 'incremental search'). Small parts of the patch (image menu, hand cursor, fixes to widgets) are slowly been added to CVS now. If you want to see the rest added as well, help me out and provide some feedback...

Problems with cookies
by johannes leimbach Sept. 28, 2003

Sept. 28, 2003

Hi ! I am using dillo 0.7.3 on my gentoo box, and it just works great! It's fast, does good rendering, short: I like it One thing bugs me though, it does not save cookies from any message boards (PHPBB). I have cookies enabled (DEFAULT ACCEPT in cookiesrc, file cookies does exist), but still: No writing. I have just noticed google does place a cookie, so it isn't entirely borked. Hey, how can i change this? It would rally make that browser perfect :) Thanks for answer & cu

[PATCH] Version 10 of tab/frame patch is ready...
by Frank de Lange Sept. 27, 2003

Sept. 27, 2003

Hi'all, The next version (10) of my tab patch is ready (see bottom of this message for download instructions). Control over margins in (i)frames has been improved (no more extraneous margin space in iframe). Dillo (when configured for frameset support) now always renders frameset - even when body content is placed outside the frameset. Frame resize support has been improved a bit. Worked around a bug in GtkContainer which messed up the 'tab' order (focus got stuck in GtkToolbar widgets). Improved/corrected focus handling in dw_gtk_scrolled_frame. New features: - interactive search ('find as you type') on "/" key - new preference: popup_dialogs=([YES]/NO) when set to NO the status bar and location bar are used for search and open URL. Open file and save file still use popup dialogs, though. Changed preferences from previous versions of patch: - frame_blank_in_tab and tab_on_middle_click are now merged into a new preference: tab_instead_of_window=(YES/[NO]) - document_title_use_url is gone, this functionality is now default - (for those who downloaded the interim-patch with find_as_you_type) find_as_you_type is gone, this functionality is bound by default to the "/" key. Use Ctrl-F for normal (non-interactive) search Some behavioural changes with regard to stock (CVS) Dillo: - Shift-Ctrl-L (instead of Ctrl-L) for "open URL" dialog - Ctrl-L for "focus location bar" - Ctrl-S for "Save page As..." - Ctrl-U for "view source" while in a document, "clear entry" everywhere else (in stock Dillo this key is bound to "focus location bar" while in a document) - Ctrl-B for "Bookmark this page" - Alt-H for "Home" - "/" starts incremental search instead of normal search. For normal (non-incremental) search use Ctrl-F The popup menu over images and hand cursor over input image features wihch used to be part of this patch have meanwhile been committed to CVS. The same goes for the bug fixes to dw_image and dw_widget. Support for the 0.7.3 branch will be dropped for the next version of this patch. Some of the new features (interactive search, popup dialog=NO, tab order bug fix) are not availabe in the 0.7.3 version of the patch. if you want the new features you'll have to switch to 0.8.0-pre. Sorry, folks, but that is the price you pay for progress... Currently, both tab and frame support can be turned off completely, producing a smaller binary. I might (on request of other Dillo developers) remove the conditional compilation, thereby making tab and frame support a permanent feature of Dillo. If you want to keep the conditional compilation feature, speak out on the mailing list! Frameset (and iframe) support is enabled by default, it can be disabled using the configure option --enable-xhtml-dtd=strict. You can also use --enable-xhtml-dtd=transitional, which will give you iframe but no frameset support. The default option, --enable-xhtml-dtd=frameset, gives both iframe and frameset support. As usual, tab support can be disabled using --disable-tabs. What does not work yet: - the full_screen_off_button is not shown in frame documents. Use double-click instead to toggle the full screen setting... - the frameborder attribute works, but dw_gtk_scrolled_frame always draws a (focus) shadow around itself - even with the border size is set to 0. This can be solved in several ways - adding a 'borderless' attribute to dw_gtk_scrolled_frame, using a special borderless GTK theme for the widget, etc. In GTK2 this is all much easier (just set the widget's style's xthickness/ythickness to 0), but we're not there yet... - borderless frames can not be resized, even though Dillo always shows a thin border (see above). Who cares about resizing borderless frames? Mozilla does it, but I don't think this is an issue. Agree? - iframes always have a border (see above) Tabs, Frames and browser bloat ============================== version: 0.8.0-pre patch: dillo-20030926-tabs.patch.gz unpatched: 292372 bytes patched, no tabs, no frames: 298624 bytes patched, with tabs, no frames: 306176 bytes patched, no tabs, with frames: 315200 bytes patched, with tabs, with frames: 322784 bytes version: 0.7.3 patch: dillo-0.7.3-20030926-tabs.patch.gz unpatched: 285248 bytes patched, no tabs, no frames: 291852 bytes patched, with tabs, no frames: 298700 bytes patched, no tabs, with frames: 308268 bytes patched, with tabs, with frames: 316556 bytes (gcc 3.2.2, binutils 2.13.90.0.18, CFLAGS "-Os") Download instructions ===================== There are two versions of the patch, one for Dillo 0.7.3 (release) and one for Dillo 0.8.0-pre (CVS).
