it do not want to dirty its hands with a iphone page? :P

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

You had the right directory & launched tear-bookmarks before, so nothing new. Problem's always been launching from Personal-Menu.

I uninstalled / installed tear & then tear-bookmarks according to bongo's instructions, post #334, and his way in that post puts the tear-bookmarks in /home/user/bookmarks/

I also have Python Launcher installed - don't set to disabled but option one or two AND click OK before closing:
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/pylauncher/

Finally set Personal-Menu's 'Command to execute' box to:
People need to change the path if theirs is different. Also as suggested here otherwise, setting paths within Personal-Menu's command-to-execute box DOES work and you don't have to be in the right directory to launch as I showed with the leafpad example. Also I don't get terminal box launches, never mind two of them, either. :)

ok, that command worked perfectly! :)

great got bookmarks to work on my n810--really simple --speed still good,,what is privioxy--i downloaded it but cannot find it on unit--anyone

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

a command line proxy that removes adds and other stuff, do a forum search and some thread or other about how to use it is bound to show up...

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

The bookmark app needs 3 features, in order of priority: Export, import & folders.

Has anyone used this update-by-append-only resource before?

How do you clear the history and cache?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Folders will be in the next release (this will be 0.9). I've got it running here, but there are still problems with drag&drop.
(If someone has made drag&drop working between two treeviews please contact me ;) )

Bundyo and TrueJournals still have to implement a way to support foldes in their apps!!

Import/Export will be possible later! (what formats do you want/need?)

Maybe I can post my coding results after weekend :)

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I think the drag'n'drop and double panels are luxuries right now and a basic create/delete folder command is a necessity. But even more necessary is the 'export' feature so at least we can manage/save our current surfing efforts in other browsers while you're finishing. Then import would be nice followed by create/delete folders. The simple and normal html format template generated by other browsers when exporting bookmarks is just fine.

Thanks very much for your great work and others too, much appreciated.

P.S. Love the screen shots :D

Well, if a terminal popped up with the way you're calling things, someone would have some splanin' ta do.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I must report that Tear crashes every time I access Gmail now.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Seems to crash where in 41128 the vkb was popping out.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Just tested, crashed if i used standard view, but works just fine on the basic.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Was just wondering if im doing something wrong in the bookmark manager can I not drag them to re-organize?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

No drag in bookmarks AFAIK. The main glitch in Tear is not a certain site or the crashing on input elements (scrollbar etc.) as I don't mind the frequent crashes considering Tear's speed & handling + restore features but personally:

- Saving files with incorrect names popping up (biggest reason for going back to microb right now). Also remembering last folder to save in & not mistaking new page elements as files to be saved.

- Basic word search in page feature. Preferably in menu so as not to crowd precious screen real-estate with only a tiny icon at bottom maybe, +> or >>, to find the next occurrance.

- Selecting text issues: 'Selecting All' in menu (no ctrl+A in N800 unless toggling to matchbox kb). Repeated clicking should select word, then paragraph then whole text area as in others, not initiate crash in some cases.

- Recognizing some page elements better specially media/plugin ones where it fails currently.

- A flash block feature would be a nice luxury.

Having said that even if I have to wait a year for some or all of those features or not have a heavy unresponsive/slow version then I'm happy to still use Tear as my main browser of choice.

P.S. It would be nice if clicking on the url box selected the whole field as in most browsers plus setting homepage & clearing cache/history. How many hundreds work full-time for Bill Gates' MS-Explorer department? :D

So thanks very much already Bundyo.

I am trying to wget http://kup.vdst-aachen.de/maemo/tear-bookmarks.tar.gz but keep getting wget not found as root or not just having invalid operattion any explanation to how to get the bookmarks installed and working, the latest from bongo thanks

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Does anyone know why neither tear nor microb will display piratebay.org properly? And when i open the page in tear it also brings up a download window even though I havent clicked on an image?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Qwerty were you replying to my post? then please be precise

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Er, yes. And it's obvious that it's a command.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Do you read other posts? :mad:

Sorry, but I think YOU should not use any alpha or preview versions!!

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

No reason to be an ***, I thought i read a post where someone said they dragged them to organize.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Danger unfinished software only for the experienced user

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I've noticed some strange behaviour and I'm wondering if it the same for anyone else. When editing my wordpress blog I've noticed that numericfields are getting cropped one digit before they should. In the case of date fields, if I edit a post from the 28th and update in tear, the post winds up against the 2nd. When resizing images, even if the original size is 4 digits, eg 2048 I can't set it to 1024 because I am restricted to 3 digits.
anyone else seen this?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Continuing from my last post on what I said about Gates' MS-explorer backed up by huge resources and Google's too: In the 1970's Xerox's Palo-Alto lab developed GUI & never profited from it but Jobs & then Gates did. Nokia missed the boat on N7/8/9xx. They should have put million$ into it's R&D and specially Tear like winners. But big corps are blind bureaucratic dinosaurs.

BTW on all handhelds, the screen should cover the whole area with the speakers at top center rim and popping up if needed. I predicted the web as a kid, HD MP3s, dirt cheap micro-projectors (coming now) and more. Next? Rolll up screens and watch-sized computers. After that? I researched it at university, when I was still interested in computers that is, but you'll just have to wait and see. If they let you have it which I doubt. :cool:

Meanwhile, Nokia's too late, junky XP's is here:

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

you are right -the aigo is a winner-unless nokia come up with a 4.3 inch screen and better support for maemo -it is all over red rover-

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Used to have a Fin girlfriend (think the guy in the video's one too), they're probably busy dreaming of poems, drinking and selling phones to even notice or care. Probably most of their shares bought up by one of the top offshore private banks benefitting secretly behind the current bailouts anyway. So who cares there? No one. Anyway more than surfing I use ebooks, waiting for this, week long battery life and ultra-thin & gettinger better & perfect for long hikes:

Seems to me like you've made 50% of posts in this thread so maybe I can expect you read the other 50%. When software is marked as alpha/not end-user friendly then it is NOT END-USER FRIENDLY.

Without insulting you: You are an end-user!

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

Personal Menu being a different app than the Nokia's Standard Launch Panel? I can see the settings to enable Tear in panels, but it doesn't show up there.

I've installed tear-bookmarks from repo, do I also have to manually download the gz-file and expand it in my user folder?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

You have to disable one of the other plugins!

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

I never used personal-launcher which is not part of the sys:
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/O...rsonal-launch/

I think most use personal-menu:
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/O...personal-menu/

If you already installed tear-bookmarks AND know where it is (default seems to be /home/user/bookmarks) just call it in personal-menu's command-to-execute box when clicking to add the item ( CLICK + ICON > COMMAND), third box (DDBus) is not usually needed with most apps as in this case:
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...&postcount=683

Edit personal-menu command is in the same menu, settings, where you find control-panel on the desktop after you install it. Also Control Panel > Panels: lets you stick it/move it on the desktop.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard
 

This is getting out of hand. If someone wants to discuss what Nokia is up to, please do it in different thread. And please remember that Tear is just an interface to WebKit. Thank you in advance.

Thanks to webkits for all the fish and so long to the thread's Big Brother. BTW, yet another mistake, the cat's both alive & dead till the box is opened: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schrödinger's_cat
