Hello, I just made a new release candidate for our upcoming dillo-2.2 release. It mainly addresses the blackhole(4) timeouts reported in http://lists.auriga.wearlab.de/pipermail/dillo-dev/2010-January/007247.html The rc2 tarball can be found as usual at: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-2.2-rc2.tar.bz2 SHA1: 38221d3499ce5f91a0c6a945a23b066e9e46ef84 Please give it a try and report back soon. The intention is to release dillo-2.2 this week. Cheers, Johannes

This is not specific to dillo-2.2, and should not hinder the release, I guess, but I have to admit that one feature I motivated is not interacting as it should. It is the middle-click pasting into the browser window to trigger loading of the pasted URL, activated via middle_click_drags_page=NO in dillorc. A Major flaw of this setting is that pasting into form fields does not work. Any middle-click triggers URL loading... when this setting is YES, the pasting into form fields works, is not harmed by the page dragging functions. I say that here just to have it mentioned... not blaming anyone but myself. But perhaps someone of you guys has an easy fix available for that? Of course one fix could be to drop the whole paste-in-window-for-URL thing but I rather like the feature... just not when I intended to paste into a form field. Also, note that the middle-click-drags-page mode is always a no-op for me as holding down the middle mouse button triggers scrolling mode via X11 anyway (a sensible setup for a Thinkpad with Trackpoint, or trackballs on desktop systems). Hm... regarding that... horizontal scroll events are not handled by dillo. One might need to investigate that in FLTK... Well, at least I have, after long time, given this little piece of feedback about the URL pasting... sorry that I didn't tell earlier, and sorry that I don't have a patch at hand. Alrighty then, Thomas.

I'll take a look at this. Can you add it to the bug tracker?

Looks good to me! Built the 2.2 rc1 with this patch and it works as expected now (as one is accustomed from other browsers). Nice to see that this is such a small patch, even. Alrighty then, Thomas.

nice! corvid, should we get this into the dillo-2.2 release? I will have to make some minor adjustments to the rc2 code anyway. It's up to you. Just commit it if you think it should go in. Cheers, Johannes

Given the circumstances, I think I would prefer to save it for after release.

What do you mean? Is the patch already included in v2.0.x-r6970? -- Cheers Jorge.-

Nope. I have no idea what they're waiting for :s.

AFAIU, FLTK-2.0 is dead and will seldom update. All the effort is concentrated in 1.3.x which they plan to release soon. -- Cheers Jorge.-

FLTK development is puzzling... they have several development trees since many years now, none of which had a release yet. Heck, they have plans for FLTK 3.x!? This development practice seems to suggest that dependent projects rather include snapshots of FLTK in their source... And, how "soon" will that FLTK 1.3 release happen so that dillo might switch to something "stable"? This specific case might just mean that I'll add an optional patch to the fltk2-package of my distro to include horizontal scrolling, though. But it would be better if upstream did this, of course. Alrighty then, Thomas.

Some fltk developers still seem to care a bit about fltk2, so maybe some cheering about the patch on the fltk list might help to get it in eventually. Cheers, Johannes
