Re: Browser Shift+Click Feature
 

Welcome to the world of computers. You wont believe how many things I've stumbled across over the years. Best way to learn in my opinion! Just sit down for 20 minutes and start poking around, better than reading any manual. Worst case scenario, you re-flash, make sure you read up on that.:D

How do I escalate this issue of shift+click=new window? No seasoned web surfer worth his weight in salt would follow a link from google for example and then go back, click another link, go back, etc. Especially in Maemo since loads use up so much time. Doing a context click is an absolute nightmare. :confused:

If I wanted to change this myself, where would I start? Source code location, how to compile, how to update maemo servers, etc? Thanks.

Well, I doubt anyone will fix it for Diablo before the community patches.

I "discovered" Shift-SPACE in platformHTMLBindings.xml which I learnt of while reading about SNAV bindings. Binding for Shift-Click might be in a similar file. My cursory search didn't turn up anything. It's probably not magic, but you never know.

Of course (and speaking of SNAV), it might turn out like snav.keyCode.modifier where the official documentation proves useless because the microb magically resets it everytime it starts. Just one of those random tidbits you find about by stumbling across it. What I haven't stumbled across is the tidbit that explains why quiting the browser requires restarting a service.

I haven't flashed anything yet. Haven't even partitioned my 8G card. When "df /" returns nothing but a header I suspect I don't understand anything.

The shift+space key combo is an absolute life saver. Others were turning on virtual memory and disabling flash when I didn't need it, sped up surfing considerably. All that's left is a key to open up a new window with a click ( I do this with middle mouse button in Windows) and pen flicks would be nice ( http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...28c621033.mspx )

It really all depends which browser will be released with the final version of Fremantle -- and, then, which browser you choose to install/use on your own. We don't know yet what features will be available in the stock browser. Fennec has tab-like functionality; installing Easy Debian Iceweasel will give you a full tabbed interface. I currently use Webkit, but it doesn't do tabs. (Does Tear use tabs?)

As Bundyo said, someone from the community would probably have to figure this out for MicroB under Diablo.

Nope, no tabs :)
