I'd contribute to it but I'm already working on a sprite system for Microwindows. Perhaps this code will one day be of some use to you guys, probably not. Still, I wanted to thank you for your work and to wish you all the best. I have a laptop with 64 megs and I am a student. I will not be able to update the laptop for a long time, I have to make that 64megs work for me. Since the web browser is the single biggest peice of software I use, I believe, what I need is a smaller web browser. A smaller Xwindows would be nice too, course, I'm already working on that project :) With either of these, I can do more with my laptop. Furthermore, a smaller, better designed, faster web browser is what I think computer users need everywhere. And not just internet connected ones. I often read html books and scientific papers on my laptop, as well as on my handheld. A smaller, faster, more efficient web browser is a godsend! When LinuxCE is finished ported to the handheld, X Windows is not going to work, so they will use nano-X. Then, of course, Netscape isn't going to fit. So they will use, no doubt, Dillo.

I must say that I am very happy with this browser: it is fast and it is able to show a lot of pictures. I also tried "armadillo/gzilla", which seems to be a competitor to dillo. To my opinion, however, dillo is far superior in speed and performance. With "gzilla" it was even impossible to work with the search-engine "google": "gzilla" only displays the first character of the google-logo and then stops. On my RedHat 5.1 distribution (with libc5 and without changing dns.c, and even without praying !) dillo works well, but it is not really small because I had to install the most recent versions of gtk+ and glib. Up to now, I was not successful in downloading programs via dillo, but, of course, after having seen the address, I can download via ftp. I also tried "mnemonic", which is also based upon gtk+. However, it seems that this browser can only be installed by hackers. For me it is no realistic option at the moment. I wish you lots of success with your development of dillo. I will gladly follow your progress.

The button should point to the top of current document, or even better to the last used link in the document's table of contents. As it is today the Left buttons goes one document back. As is now, it is annoying when reading a large document, as you need to use the schroll bar to go back to top of page. Sorry that I am not a programmer, else I should have joined the team. Dillo is the fastest browser I have ever used.

Espero, con mucha ansiedad, las proximas versiones que complementen mas detalles. Linux necesitaba un 'browser' como 'Dillo', ya que las otras alternativas a Nestscape no son aceptables (Konqueror requiere la instalacion del K-Desktop, Galeon requiere el elefantizo Mozilla).

Please explain > me what a "quick little bugger" is. Well, the browser, starts up very fast, almost no thrashing the hard drive. As opposed to Netscape which thrashes the hard drive for about 1-2 minuates before it comes up. To view a webpage it is the same, thrashing the hard drive. Dillo runs alot cleaner. ========================================================================== Sun Feb 11 19:43:41 2001 -0300 Return-Path: <@starmedia.com> Hola.Hace un tiempo bajé el navegador Dillo 3.0 y realmente me gustó bastante.Todavía falta mucho por hacer,es cierto,pero el proyecto se ve muy prometedor.Es ligero,rápido y visualmente agradable.

I just wanted to say that dillo rocks. It is the fastest browser I ever tried on my 486 laptop, sometimes even faster then w3m (when I'm browsing the gtk+ documentation, for example). Of course, it would need tables to gain the basic functionality -- but for an alpha release, it is great, stable and all. I especially like the idea of a gtk+ based aplication *not* requiring GNOME. This is something annoing me immensly with most of the modern GUI application: they rely on heavy shots like KDE or Gnome. I hope I will be able to add some patches to your project.

It compiled without event. and works well and quickly. I needed this to install a browser on my 50mhz 16meg 486. It even ran without quarrel on that machine. (netscape, wordperfect, and netraider all fail on that machine). There is one problem, however, I'm not sure if this is truely a bug, so I hesitate to list it on the bug tracking system.

The dillo browser is absolutely great, it does not crash, and it is very fast on any machine I run it on. I beleive the 0.4.0 version is more stable then my netscape. I just thought I'd put in a good word for the browser because I like it alot. One thing I'd like to see, although, is a way to use the mailto: command. I use Balsa GNOME email client, it has a command to just bring up a 'new message' and let you compose. The command is 'balsa --compose=user@host.xxx' the entire program does not come up, just the 'new message' window... Would it not be easy enough to add this feature to dillo, allowing to write a responce to a mailto:?

Below is a quick, _clean_ addition to the UI that is half of what Dillo is missing. It adds four lines to the file menu.c, function a_Menu_popup_new, line 177: This adds Ctrl-H and Alt-H as Back and Forward hot keys: Menu_add(menu, "Back", "< a_Commands_back_callback, bw); Menu_add(menu, "Forward", "< a_Commands_forw_callback, bw); This was a 'quick' fix and took at least several hours to track down. Could NOT figure out how to get that fscking BackSpace key to work so I used Ctrl-H instead. Hint hint :-) The other thing that is needed from a basic UI perspective is for the Web page position to be stacked for recall upon return. Really hate it when I have a 1/4 meg web page up, am half way down it, hit a link and then have to find where I was all over again after a Back operation. I would contemplate trying to fix it, but in view of how long it took just to add a couple of accelerator keys, you guys will have it fixed before I could even figure it out. But all of this is just a _minor_ quibble. Really Fine Work! This is what a browser is supposed to be. Don' need no steenkin' key clicks, this is fast enough to make its own sonic crack (Slack 7.05 [7.0+2.2.18 kernel] 233Mhz PIII, 64 Meg RAM).

I've been browsing most of the night and am really pleased with it. It's too bad that sites like LinuxToday and Slashdot can't remember me, but perhaps cookie support would slow it down too much and so that is a sacrifice I"m willing to make.

Just wanted to write and thank you for dillo! I didn't use it for local browsing before, because of the lack of tables. Now I've replaced the 'w3m | gless' oneliner I used to use with dillo. It's been great. I got tired of clicking through LT's newsite just to read the story and wrote a script the other day to go there direct -- and load it into dillo. Actually, since I set up the rc file, I think much of today I've been using it on the net too. No cache, so places like fm load quite slowly, but then, if I were to turn on a caching proxy other browsers would benefit too. FWIW, I'm using mdk8.0 with a beta kde and glibc. It compiled out at about 1meg and stripped it is 207k, dillo 0.5 was 177k. I have a Celery466/128ram. I see you have your eye on the ipaq/agenda/yopy/exillion/whoknowswhat market, so I guess dillo will stay light and quick. - Wheel mouse works fine in dillo. - Very happy to find the middle click worked on links - Space bar won't advance by page - No back/forward on context menu After table cleanup, maybe you could do like w3m and just render frames as tables? I think that would be fine for everyone. I think frames are/shouldbe deprecated anyhow. Background image wouldn't hurt, but hardly matters /too/ much. Less for java (everyone I know hates to wait for java). Java /script/ has its moments though.

I normally keep well away from alpha stuff but thought I would try it since I was so disappointed with everything else I have tried. I'm very very impressed, Dillo is fantastic and just what I have been looking for it's really fast compared to anything else I've found. It's light with the basic functionality I want ,open multiple windows, open new window clicking on window, renders tables and graphics with most operations able to be done from the keyboard. This is just to say thanks your work is really appreciated and I will definitely be keeping an eye on developments. There are far too many bloatware web browsers round now this fills a gap for sure. I noticed there is a bug report regarding viewing items on eBay, is there anything I can do to help with this? I don't know anything about C, but I do development for HTML and Zope if there is anything I can do regarding testing etc. let me know. Thanks again and have a fantastic day.

Trying Dillo is a fun experience. I was reading the bug trak ..many are more features than bugs and it's by reading them than noticing anything that i have a lil beef.. Many of the feature enhancements requests mentioned would make dillo just like any browser. What's fun right now about dillo is this.It dosent support JAVA ,it has NO plugins it dosent animate ,dosent support cookies and there aint a thing wrong with this. What is missing is downloads,frames and text cut and paste from/to the browser. Why did i download Dillo ? Fast, no frills. If i wanted frills id get Mozilla which i trashed and dont use. If i need a reasonably fast browser with pulg in support for fun pages and downloads i use Opera. Traditional browsers are a pain. Mostly they do many things and do them bad. I see Dillo as the alternative to bloated,slow large and inefficient traditional browsers. See if i need a page real quick i use Dillo If i could have a fast no frils browser that supports downloads..id keep it . I dont need cookies , animations, flash when i want to get information quick. I beleive Dillo has acheived this. Fast to the point and no frills. Downloads,frames and cut and paste of text, that would be it for me .If you put in cookies a way to disable them totally. Once Dillo is at that point ill put it on archive and keep it . Nice work . It's a great lil browser as it is, cant wait to see what's up next. best regards richard _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

It compiled perfectly out of the box with gcc-2.95.3 and is extremely fast! It's one of the best pieces of Free Software I've seen in a long time. Well done, and keep up the good work. Iain ========================================================================== Sun Dec 23 22:23:42 2001 Return-Path: <@lists.sourceforge.net> Hello, Just a note to let you know how much I enjoy using Dillo. I guess I've tried, and cursed, just about every browser out there for years but I well remember my first reaction upon loading Dillo. It went something like "HOLY SH*T,it's loaded already!". I knew then and there that I had hit gold. The only thing faster is maybe lynx. I use Dillo everyday, It is my primary browser of choice. I still keep Netscape 4.7 and mozilla around for emergency viewing of troublesome pages (image maps,java,persistent cookies and the like) but it is a last resort that will make me fire up anything else. I look forward to a new version of Dillo like a 6 year old looks forward to Christmas. Thank you very much for all your hard work, it is deeply appreciated. Gotta go, Ive got a proggy to compile (0.6.3 is out). Sincerely, Dan P. ========================================================================== Mon Jan 07 15:58:03 2002 Return-Path: <@yahoo.com> Hallo from Greece Bravo for your faster Browser !!

I use it daily and dread the times when I am forced to crank up the diesel engine called Mozilla for programs that require cookies, ssl, java, flash, etc. (which is rare by the way) Before Dillo was thrown into my lap I was using a script written by Hobbit (l0pht) powered by netcat! The extra crap is cute and all but hardly worth the wait. With Dillo I don't have to sacrifice speed for legibility. I haven't looked at the cookies patches because frankly I haven't been able to get any of the patches people have put out to work (except the forms patch which is great!). Is it possible (I'm sure the answer is yes) to include "imaginary cookies support?" To just placate the web servers and accept the cookies but just hold them in memory (ccache.[ch]) until Dillo is closed. There is really no need to keep them. Web pages don't require that you have the cookie already, just that you are willing to accept them. Maybe this has been covered before and you can all fill my inbox with hate mail if I'm beating a dead horse. But, why doesn't Dillo support the full html code? It seems to me that that should be a primary concern. For instance the < haven't done any gui programming. I love Dillo. I appreciate all the hard work everyone has put into it to make it the fine browser it is. Because of the extensive documentation and attention to detail I am learning a great deal about all aspects of programming. -Paul (@splorg.org) ========================================================================== Mon Jan 14 17:14:21 2002 Return-Path: <@lists.sourceforge.net> Hi folks, I won't be able to contribute development work. I' just like to say a big thanks for Dillo!!! And for the way you implement it! As a user of an "excotic" platform (Motorola 68040/68060 based), I very much appreciate that Dillo is purely written in C, and its small size and high efficieny! Great that libs like GNOME are not required. Of course I am hoping for new features, but I'd also like to state from a users point of view that Dillo is already useful right now! Great work! Please continue the development! Thanks a lot!

I was on the road when I first got your email; was away from my own computer. The largest problem with xfce upgrades is lost links to menu icons. I'll not go through digging those out from obscure places again, for it takes too long. Olivier's suggestions may cover the problem. I'll investigate and, if need be, get in touch with him. I've used rxvt for quite a while, both with Linux and Cygwin. Some application was having fits with rxvt, though. I tried the simpler aterm, and that solved the problem. I'm typing this on the NT side of the machine, and cannot recall just now what application was causing difficulties. Some ncurses-based thing, I suppose. I've done just enough programing to appreciate the labor that goes into something like dillo. Lots of work and plenty of pitfalls, too. Pretty neat when things come together. ========================================================================== Tue Feb 05 23:36:17 2002 Return-Path: <@acn.waw.pl> thank you for the dillo; recently i was looking for a light, fats html browser. i think i've finnaly found one. -- Lukasz Grabun GM d+ s: a-- C++ UL P L++ E---- W-- N++ o?

I found out about Dillo from the XFce site. With the help of some documentation from a newbie site, I was able to compile Dillo after loading a few libraries, and was surprised at how easy the process was. Dillo IS a very fast browser. Dillo and XFce make my old Pentium I machine usable again, and my Pentium III is really fast with the two of them. I was surprised at the functionality of Dillo...you said version 0.6.4 is alpha code, but for viewing and navigating web pages, it is very stable and (again) fast! The about:splash screen and the dillorc file make configuring Dillo easy. Again, many thanks to the Dillo team for a most excellent project. Please keep up the good work.

I've got a reasonably low end system, and doing html editing can be annoying when mozilla takes so long to load up. It's nice to find a functional slim graphical browser to supplement my net use (and it's pretty). I'm interested in seeing a few features though: - A commandline feature to let dillo load a URL in a current dillo window, as with: dillo -current /foo/bar.htm This would let me edit a file (in nedit), and call on dillo within that editor to do a preview of the file.. without bothering to surf around within dillo to load the file, and without bothering to have dillo called up for a second instance. and two little features - alt-left/right to hop back/forward in the history - ctrl-r for refresh Again, fine work.. =) Cheers, Sy. ========================================================================== Sat Sep 14 15:28:03 2002 Return-Path: <@lists.sourceforge.net> i'm literally just taking a break from some research that i have to eventually make sense of, but the fact that i've been intimately all over the world that i need to touch, extracting so much of the knowledge i need to achieve my immediate goal and getting to much of it with the current deb of dillo, i felt moved to leave a note to say thanks. i wish i had the skill to contribute. if you should ever have need of a copy editor, send me a word. i would love to help, but that's the only talent i can offer. the bottom line is thank you very much ========================================================================== Tue Oct 29 15:35:17 2002 Return-Path: <@uab.es> Jorge, soy usuario de Dillo desde antes que existiera como tal, en los tiempos de gzilla, sobretodo para browser local en mi Debian de casa.

I'm a HUGE fan of software that is light-weight and Dillo would have to be the smallest, functional browser I've ever used. I find that it is especially useful for browsing documentation that's saved as a stack of HTML pages on disk. I mostly use it for reading the GTK API docs. when developing GTK applications. Anyway, before I'm done I was just wondering if future versions of Dillo might make tabs available for multiple pages?

Seems some of you might need to know how to compile libpng from sources - and where to get 'em. I recommend the blfs book for common sense instructions on this and other source builds. http://beyond.linuxfronscratch.org Although designed for the 'Linux From Scratch' (lfs) pseudo-distribution (it's a book on how to build a leading-edge linux using sources alone), the instructions work for many other distros too. Just don't ask 'how to's' on their lists unless using lfs! :-) I want to add my thanks to El Cid, too. Let's have Moor! :-))) -- Cheers, Richard ========================================================================== Thu May 08 19:12:41 2003 Return-Path: <@lists.auriga.wearlab.de> Konqueror is an excellent browser. However is main disadvantage is that i= t is=20 a slow starter. Therefore I appreciate dillo very much. I use it for view= ing=20 local .html, especially documentations, and as an super quick internet=20 viewer. Therefore I configured dillo as browser for my mail client, emacs= ,=20 and many more programms.=20 Cheers -Niels ========================================================================== Wed Apr 30 13:28:23 2003 Return-Path: <@lists.auriga.wearlab.de> Hi. It has probably been said a million times (however I could only find 1) but I like to thank all of you guys for writing Dillo.

It is lean, fast and free. For web browsing and writing of simple html texts, I use mozilla. But I was looking for a reader for documentation written in html, and loading mozilla takes far too long for that. So - congratulations. Should you ever decide to inflate dillo to a full fledged web browser, stuffed with all kind of gizmos, please keep offering a small, fast version such as the actual one.

No boring stuff like other browsers, all is so simple and easy-to-use! I just come to compile the last version (0.7.2) with a customized toolbar (pixmaps.jg.h), this is now PERFECT :) I don't find u really have to add something (even if I need Javascript for online shopping sometimes, & I've to launch another browser ;) POST-IT: just a remark about the PNG support, and the alpha channel: once the browser has loaded the picture, if it's used again -on a different zone- the background (which should be 'transparent') remains with the first background color...a cache pb? LAST WORD: Thank u !!!! ========================================================================== Fri Jul 18 16:45:01 2003 Return-Path: <@free.fr> Hello, First of all, sorry for my english :) , I want to thank you and other developers of the Dillo browser, for all that you're already done. I've got a 486 DX4 75Mhz , 24Mo RAM, 3Go HD, on a 640x480 TFT display with Debian Sid. Under Xfree 3.3.6 with the fluxbox window manager, Dillo is what i use to see the web because it's really fast even on my old laptop. I know links and lynx, but i prefer see the web with colors fonts and pictures. Dillo widgets seem to be based on GTK1.2, it's slower than lesstif but reasonnably responsive, and good looking. I tried fresh GTK-2 apps like gftp, and even with simple fonts (no AA, etc.) it's incredibly slow. I don't know if it will be as fast as GTK-1.2 in the future, but now i can't use GTK-2 based apps on this machine. So i hope Dillo will stay with the fastest libraries. Another wish, i like CSS 1 and 2, XHTML and hope to see a good standard css engine on Dillo ! :) What do you think about tabbed browsing, and a possible tabbed one in Dillo, is it hard to do ? Or a sort of arborescent menu in the middle click of a page [Navigation] [< [< [< [close current tab] [open new tab] [open bookmarks in new tab] Just an idea like that, if i middle click on the current page, this sort of menu appear, i click on [open bookmarks in new tab] the current "tab" (main window) is cleaning and bookmarks appear, now i middle click again and one field is added [Navigation] [< [< [< [< [close current tab] [open new tab] [open bookmarks in new tab] the littles [< [Navigation] [Tab 1: Dillo.org/authors] [Tab 2: linuxfr.org] [Tab 3: google.fr] [Tab 4: Bookmarks] [close current tab] [open new tab] [open bookmarks in new tab] that's simplier, now i click on [Tab 2: linuxfr.org], the main window reload this one, and i can middle click on it and choose [close current tab] ... [Navigation] [Tab 1: Dillo.org/authors] [Tab 2: google.fr] [Tab 3: Bookmarks] [close current tab] [open new tab] [open bookmarks in new tab] Maybe a close button near each field will be more fast [Navigation] [Tab 1: Dillo.org/authors][X] [Tab 2: google.fr][X] [Tab 3: Bookmarks][X] [open new tab] [open bookmarks in new tab] I know middle click menu need two clicks to go to another tab, opposed to mozilla or firebird which need only one in apparent tabs, but in the middle click navigation menu, you don't need to move the mouse to far. I don't know what can you do with those ideas, i'm not a developer, but i'd like to see that in dillo if possible, but it's not essential. Thank you Bye Nicolas Beuzeboc ========================================================================== Thu Aug 07 13:29:54 2003 Return-Path: <@netcourrier.com> Hello, I discovered dillo yesterday because I was looking for a light browser for my old laptop. I think it's a great job, and I congratulate you and the other authors. I hope this project will stay so active. Thanks a lot ! Mathieu ========================================================================== Thu Aug 14 20:25:58 2003 Return-Path: <@freenet.de> Hi! Congratulations! I have been using Mozilla Firebird 0.6.1 and it is very disappointing that it takes half a minute to start on my good old P1-200 with 64 MB RAM. Even when it is running, it runs really slow and uses a lot of memory. I tried the new dillo 0.7.3 and, wow, it started in one second and it renders 90% of the pages I visit everyday quite good and fast. I really look forward to watch this browser grow more mature but stay small and fast. Best wishes, Mario ========================================================================== Wed Sep 01 20:50:03 2004 Return-Path: <@ukonline.co.uk> Hi I'm new to Linux and have been reading about all the clever things you can do with it. I wanted a lightweight browser to put on my laptop and my friends PC. I tried Dillo and was blown away by the speed and simplicity. Its absolutely perfect for our needs. Please thank the team for the excellent work! Many thanks Tony Sutton ========================================================================== Sun Nov 28 16:07:03 2004 Return-Path: <@phoenix.owl.de> Hi Jorge! I managed to compile Dillo on my SGI Indy running IRIX 5.3, by commenting out G_DNS_THREADED in dns.c. The only other problem I had was with vsnprintf(), which doesn't exist in every OS. You're using glib-1.x, and you already called g_snprintf() instead of snprintf(), so why not g_vsnprintf()? The attached patches fix that. I like Dillo very much! A fast, modern and compact browser, which makes surfing on my 100MHz R4000 fun again. Before I used Netscape 4.08 (the most recent Netscape for Irix 5.3), which is slow and crashes every few minutes. Wishing you all the best with your project, and hoping to see a version which supports frames and CSS! :) Regards, -- _ Frank Wille (@phoenix.owl.de) _ // http://devnull.owl.de/~frank/ \X/ Phx @ #AmigaGer ========================================================================== Wed Dec 22 11:54:36 2004 Return-Path: <@crsa.bu.edu> Dillo is a classy piece of software.

I think my favourite use is in my ~/.mailcap for viewing html emails in mutt, eg text/html; dillo -f -l %s ; nametemplate=%s.html dillo opens and loads so quickly, and renders pages so much more nicely than something like w3m or lynx, in fact, all mutt users should add this to their mailcap :) But I also use a lot of hardware with limited resources where dillo makes web browsing usable, I dread to think how long it would take before some of those systems started thrashing if I started up firefox or something! dillo just blows everything else out of the water for required resources to features ratio. -- ------------------------------------- @sdf.lonestar.org | finger me for my gpg key. ------------------------------------------------------- ========================================================================== Tue Jan 11 20:16:08 2005 Return-Path: <@fastmail.fm> Hi, I want to say thanks for your great work on dillo. It's really great to use the efficient browser dillo is. And even greater to see that there are people caring about software efficiency and reaching out to the people who can't or don't want to buy new computer hardware. The whole point of view behind dillo gives an extra good feeling when using it. Altough I still have to overcome my distrust on paying over the internet, I hope I'll donate once to you.
