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/

Should note, there is no large option anymore for the panel_size dillorc variable. Only tiny, small & medium. Hacking the dillo source code, following gives me larger buttons when selecting the medium profile. --- ./dillo-3.0.5/src/ui.cc 2015-06-10 17:45:37.000000000 -0400 +++ ui.cc 2016-01-05 14:52:24.298175587 -0500 @@ -559,7 +559,7 @@ if (Small_Icons) bw = 42, bh = 36, mh = 0, lh = 22, lbl = 1; else - bw = 45, bh = 45, mh = 0, lh = 28, lbl = 1; + bw = 65, bh = 65, mh = 0, lh = 48, lbl = 1; } nh = bh, fh = 28; sh = 20; Although the buttons seem much larger, the font size still remains the same size. I may guess dillo is pulling the system font size (and maybe including font name and style), and using this size as it's local font size too? As such, I use a small font size for DWM's toolbars for obvious reasons. I tend to use different font sizes for all three; terminal, DWM desktop toolbars, and applications. I have DWM configured with Conky to display system information within the DWM toolbars, so the font has to be somewhat small to relay all information. Terminal uses the next larger size as I need to be able to read text or source code files, but still needs to be somewhat small to see whole files. And then applications, requiring the next larger font as the information within the application's toolbars are more well structured, allowing larger fonts, and to also mention requiring larger buttons so I can click the applications button's easier. On a side note, I'm stumped as to meanings of bw, bh, mh, lh, lbl. I can only guess; bold weight, bold hieght, medium hieght, ... Personally, I avoid two to three letter variable names, except for the obvious counters. As the inventor of programming languages stated, the langauge should be readable. ;-)
