Hi there! Finally, after a lot of work, the first release candidate tarball for dillo-0.7.0 is ready. The idea is to test this tarball and if it has no problems, the 0.7.0 release will be made of it (with only minor or cosmetical changes). Once again, I'm specially interested on non GNU/Linux platforms testing (bacause I already tested GNU/Linux). ------------------- Summary of changes: + Included the bookmarks server code inside the main tree (no separate tarball now, it all builds at once) + Added a workaround for nanosleep on Solaris in configure.in + Added a new icon for bookmarks and set ALT+B or ; as shortcuts. (there's also the option of hiding the icon from dillorc). + Made a new splash screen (contents and design). + Made a custom D_SUN_LEN definition to avoid inconsistencies with SUN_LEN, also switched memory clearing to sizeof and defined AF_LOCAL when not present. + Made ~/.dillorc/ have precedence over PATH when searching for plugins. + Added a SIGCHLD handler to avoid zombies when the dpi server is killed manually before dillo exits. + Bound find text to /. Now it works with CTRL+F or / + Added an icon for bookmarks. + Image tooltip now works with "title" instead of "alt". (had mistankenly switched to "text" before...) bm_srv12: + Made the convertion (import) from the old bookmarks format automatic. + Made it work when there's no bm.txt file present, and also when there's a zero sized bm.txt. + Fixed some Solaris compatibility glitches. + Fixed SUN_LEN issues. ------------------- The test emphasis should be on the new features. Please remember first to remove the bookmarks server binary from your ~/.dillo/ directory and killing the server if running, before testing. Now, a simple: ./configure make make install-strip should build and install everything right (it works here!) The plan is to make the official release this Sunday or early on Monday. Please send your feedback to this list. I'll be updating the site in the meanwhile, so please focus on the tarball. Last but not the least, the splash screen includes a link to the text version of an interview I gave to tux.cl magazine. The original is in spanish so I made a quick translation to english so everyone can read it. If you are knowledgeable in english grammar please read/correct it and send me the diffs. That'd be, as always, highly appreciated. Thanks a lot and I'll be expecting your feedback! Jorge.- PS: For those that read this far, here's the tarball: http://dillo.auriga.wearlab.de/dillo-0.7.0-rc1.tar.gz :-)

I couldn't get 0.6.6 nor the CVS version of a couple of days ago to compile using tcc under GNU/Linux. http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/tcc/ I can post more details if required, but tcc is easy enough to install that it's probably easier for people to experiment with it themselves. John.

I haven't had a chance to look at the interview, but I've done the same for the splash screen itself (patch for src/IO/about.c attached) -- Kelson Vibber kelson@pobox.com http://www.hyperborea.org/ Creative Writing - Photography - The Flash
I just realized I missed some corrections in the patch for the splash screen. Here's the updated patch. (Yes, the dates are the same; all the changes I missed were in lines I had already changed, so I just edited the previous patch.) -- Kelson Vibber kelson@pobox.com http://www.hyperborea.org/ Creative Writing - Photography - The Flash
