Of course, dillo2 is not a library package, but I think it should follow the same convention on the grounds of least surprise. (Unless there is a compelling reason not to, but I don't think that there is.)
Does dillo1 offer *anything* over dillo2? E.g. why would you want dillo1 and dillo2 at the same time. If there is no such reason, it doesn't make sense to rename the binary.
Dillo1 is used as an html viewer by sylpheed (claws). I don't know the name of the binary they distribute though. Dillo2 doesn't provide the required CLI switches yet.
That's it AFAIR. Dillo2 doesn't have these switches:
-x, --xid XID Open first Dillo window in an existing GtkSocket which window ID is XID (decimal). -v, --version Display version info and exit. -h, --help Display this help text and exit. -f, --fullwindow Start in full window mode: hide address bar, navigation buttons, menu, and status bar. -l, --local Don't follow links for this URL(s). -g, -geometry GEO Set initial window position where GEO is <width>x<height>{+-}<x>{+-}<y> -D, --debug-rendering Draw additionaly several lines in a web page, representing its structure. For debugging.
Everybody: please add your comment in this thread, even if stated before.
I would prefer "dillo". If anybody wants/needs both versions, mv and ln -s are available to them.
Me too. Citing from the homepage: "Dillo is following an evolving software-model where every new version of it, should be better than the former one; there's no place for unstable releases, so just keep with the latest one" I would even use dillorc for consistency. Cheers, Johannes
