[PATCH] Move progress indicators to the status bar
by Chris Palmer April 3, 2003

April 3, 2003

Hello, This patch moves the progress indicator box to the status bar, where I think most users expect it. Also I think it looks better and uses screen space more effectively. Let me know if you have any trouble applying it. It's pretty simple, and it makes the code smaller (which is always good!). Best, -- Chris music is what numbers feel like San Francisco, CA

Terminology change for "full screen mode"
by Chris Palmer April 3, 2003

April 3, 2003

Hello, I propose changing the terms used to describe the button that hides or shows the control panel. This feature is great, btw! "Full screen" means to me that when I press the button, the browser window will grow to the size of the display, and possibly hide its window manager elements (frame, title bar, buttons, et c.). It doesn't mean to me that the control panel will be hidden. In my copy of the source, I've changed the tooltips for this button to "Show controls" and "Hide controls". But also, the names of the variables and functions that are related to this button should change, for easy readability. Do people agree with me that "hide/show controls" is better than "full screen on/off"? If so, I will create and submit a patch to change the variable and function names.

Re: configuration patch - Fix for bugs 386, 407, 392, 412 and notes on bugs 349, 408
by Jorge Arellano Cid April 3, 2003

Hi there! We're trying to fix our configure.in with Andreas. The latest CVS commit has a boat load of minor changes that require testing. Please refer to the subject line for BUG# numbers. On Sun, 23 Mar 2003, Andreas Schweitzer wrote: > Hi Jorge, > > This patch - mainly against configure.in - fixes > all these bugs - some of which are duplicates, actually.

It is suggested to first check the headers and then the libraries, but every time I get into autoconf/automake I get a bad gut sensation. It is so confuse and messy... I checked the new code and decided to give more order to the whole stuff in there. This means some things changed, but the tests for jpeg and png remained (with some changes for zlib). > About libpng : Since version 1.2.2 it moved the headers > to libpng/png.h which is correct on all platforms I tested. > Since version 1.2.3 the install *should* create a link > to the old location, and there *should* be a libpng-config > script.

I'm not sure of what to do here :(. For now I added Patrice's patch that simply adds: sysconf_DATA = dillorc in Makefile.am, and it works! The problem is we don't know what directory it gets in. :-) Currently if it is /usr/local/etc/ or /etc, it works, but if someone chooses /opt/weird/etc, it won't be found. If your solution fixes this, I'll switch to it. > About 349 : not sure if this really causes trouble. > I may have to do some major autoconf thing - like > trying with default and then trying with /usr/local > added - for each test, though (maybe a new macro ?). I removed the /usr/local stuff: -CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -I/usr/local/include" -LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -L/usr/local/lib" IMHO, it shouldn't be there, as the system SHOULD be configured in a way that programs are able to find system resources. Maybe this serves as a workaround: CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS -I/usr/local/include" ./configure :-) > About 408: this seems to be caused by using libpng 1.0.12 (i.e. > the old libpng). On Debian it seems to be called that strangly. > The person should probably give more details or use libpng 1.2.X. Yes, that seems to be caused by an ancient libpng.

I only hope we find the way to fix our configure stuff the right way... > To test it, it probably needs to go on a lot more platforms > but I hesitated to send it to the list.

Cheers Jorge.- PS: Get a new copy from CVS, ./autogen.sh, ./configure ...

What's the latest update about dillo and css? Is this the reason why this site: http://www.linuxgames.com is so difficult to read?

Ah, yes, of course. This was just a suggestion, and should be simple to fix. Sebastian

VERBATIM and TEXTAREA
by Jorge Arellano Cid April 2, 2003

April 2, 2003

Hi there! I just commited a fix for VERBATIM mode in the parser, and some hopefully final improvements to the code handling TEXTAREA initial values. This could be very important for those of you expecting to be able to use dillo with some sites that use the feature: for instance GNU-mailman! Just give it a try! (was BUG#318 and BUG#400). Cheers Jorge.-

Remote control reloading
by Christian W. Zuckschwerdt April 2, 2003

April 2, 2003

Hi, dillo is really a neat, compact and precise instrument. I don't want to see it being clobbered in any way. I have one request for bloat though. What about implementing some signals dillo would react on. I.e. SIGHUP to make dillo reload the page. (I'd like to use dillo to render the output of some shells scripts interactivly. These scripts are derived from cgi-bins.) Perhaps you wouldn't consider this bloat at all. cu. : Christian

Anti-aliasing
by Nicola Girardi April 1, 2003

April 1, 2003

If you remember somebody made a patch to enable anti-aliasing, but it was for Dillo 0.6.6 or something. I updated it to work with current CVS, it's attached (few lines). There are just a couple of remarks: 1. You have to do the final step of the compilation manually to link to the correct libraries because I don't know how to add them to the auto-tools stuff. (-lXft -lXrender -lfontconfig if I remember correctly.) 2. It seems to me that italic and bold fonts aren't rendered correctly (they are rendered as normal) but I don't know if it's just due to how I configured stuff in my box. Please tell me if it works for you. IMHO, after 2 is fixed (if it's broken at all) this should go into CVS, because it's a major benefit to have anti-aliased fonts. Well, IMHO, as I said.
