annoyed by the slow source view widget I'd like to play with a source viewer dpi (Jorge, I think you suggested to use a dpi instead of coding it in dillo directly). However I want to avoid to reload the page from the dpi, as I want to be able to view the source exactly as it is currently displayed.
How should I pass the html document from dillo to the dpi? Any ideas?
Can you borrow the start_send_page stuff used to send local files to dillo?
That's the idea.
You have to pass the source to the dpi to create a table with the line number. That way you have the handy line number and find text functionality.
Something like:
<table> <tr><td>1 <td> LINE_CONTENT_HERE <tr><td>2 <td> LINE_CONTENT_HERE ... </table>
Yes, that will be the fun part :) I also think about an option to pass the html to tidy to make it more readable. However first I need to get the html from dillo to the dpi. Is the start_send_page already working in that direction or is a new equivalent method needed?
From the top of my head (because I haven't worked there in a long time): start_send_page is the canonical way to send a page to dillo from a dpi. The missing part may be how to send the page to the dpi first. I remember making a short and funny dialog for adding bookmarks to illustrate how bidirectional data exchange could be done; it's still in the code! (take a look in a_Bookmarks_chat_add()) If it gets unclear, please let me know to allocate some time to help on it. -- Cheers Jorge.-
