Is there already a Dillo port?
 
1 Attachment(s)
Well, I just port that. Still not optimize the UI for maemo.
I want to make sure there's no existing port yet. Or it's wasting my time.

It's really fast on my N810. Even much much faster than Tear. But you know, it just support css not long ago, so it should compares to links, lynx, w3m. The better thing is it's not running in the terminal.

Wow this is awesome! Dillo is great, I used to use it all the time when I had a (much) slower machine. Good for basic web browsing for sure! Are you going to host your port somewhere? Or could I request you stick it on a free hosting service so I could get it?

Install libfltk2 first.

Well, I just packaged it up in deb format. After had a look at the code, I found it's hard to change to maemo style.
Currently, the fullscreen key doesn't work. The "Enter" key doesn't work. After input the web address in the url field, you need to press the center key, the one in the up, down, left, right keys.
And, it seems that only English or your locale pages can be displayed currently. The worst thing is the virtual keyboard doesn't work. Anyway, it works just ok on my N810 with hard keyboard.
Dillo doesn't have lots of menus. To change the preferences/settings, you need to copy the diallorc file to ~/.dillo. You can have a look at http://www.dillo.org/dillo2-help.html and http://www.dillo.org/FAQ.html.

2. not utf-8 code

Consistently crashes after about two minutes for me. The effort is much appreciated, though. And trying this version inspired me to install the version of Dillo available through Easy Debian. It's older but (in my limited experience) much more stable.

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
Perhaps someone will come along and Hildonize it. That's super cool of you to do what you did firstfan, I for one say thanks :)

Hey, last I'd seen, Dillo development was pretty much stalled. Looks like it's rolling pretty well now; I'll have to try it out again. Thanks for the port!

Dillo is cool; I'd love to see a fully usable tablet version.

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
Me likey! I use it on the desktop (and laptop) as well, when all I want is to display simple pages quicker, so this fits the bill. I just edited the bookmarks file, changed the preferences to save screen real estate and I'm all set.

It won't be easy to hildonize, though :)

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
Hi! Dillo lovers!
I wrote a simple c program that add
  • Real FullScreen Mode
  • RightClick
  • TapScrolling(like micro-B)
to Dillo2 in Maemo.

while you hold down FSKey(F6) , your taps become Rightclicks.
when you push FSKey(F6) (at most 500ms), an active window of Dillo goes fullscreen.
also, you can toggle TapScrolling mode by PlusKey(F8).

File : maemodillohelper_0.0.3a_armel.deb
File : maemodillohelper_0.0.3b_armel.deb
File : maemodillohelper_0.0.3c_armel.deb

Install :
  • 1.install <dillo2>
  • 2.install <xmodmap>
  • 3.Download maemodillohelper_0.0.3c_armel.deb
  • 4.run "dpkg -i maemodillohelper_0.0.3c_armel.deb"
  • 5a.run "dillo.maemo"(wrapper shell scrept) instead of "dillo"
  • 5b.select "Dillo_maemo" from AppMenu.

(to tell the truth , TapScrolling mode is Middleclick mode.)

t_moyashi san - Thanks for these hacks.. Fullscreen view of the dillo browser should make it even more useful..

Actually I performed the steps mentioned above and in your roomNo.810 blog ( btw a very useful collection there..).. When I initiate dillo through your wrapper script and click on the Full screen key, Full scree does not seem to work and also the Tap scrolling. Not sure of the issue..

Also for input, hildon KB does not seem to work ( I dont have Scim or Maemo CJK as you have).. Is there a way we can use Hildon virtual key board or any other input method apart from the slide out key board of my N810.

Oh, sorry.
I uploaded an old testing version of dillohelper-plus.
I'll upload a new version in 2-3 days.
please wait.

</del>


>>hildon KB
hildonKB seems not to work on FLTK2 applications.
so , we can't use it with dillo2...

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
File : maemodillohelper_0.0.3a_armel.deb

Update1 :
  • files were Debian packaged
  • tapscrollong mode was fixed (Thanks shin. )

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
File: maemodillohelper_0.0.3b_armel.deb
Update2:
  • some bugs were fixed.


BTW I compiled Dillo2 from current source code checkouted from a repository
(--prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-ssl)
It seems more stable and speedy than before.
I cannot wait for the release of version 2.1.2:)
File2 : dillo_2.1.1.hg091015-maemo1_armel.deb

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
I was able to finally get the dillo "full screen" mode working. Thank you t_moyashi san!

I also installed the latest version of the dillo you had compiled. However when I started it after installation, it complained about libxinerama.so.1 missing

After some searching around I got libxinerama as a installable .deb from here. Just in case, if it would help someone..

I have dillo 2 working good now in fullscreen mode with tapscrolling and it IS fast!!

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
Thanks for the latest version, t_moyashi san..

I am just wondering if there is a way to have the hildon virtual Key board working for this..
With the slider keyboard, I seem to have trouble to input the Return/enter key press after typin the address in the URL area..

I use the center key of D-pad instead of the "return" key.
but if you really want to use the "return" key,
run
Code:

xmodmap -e 'keycode 36 = Return'
# you can restore default settings by reboot or
Code:

xmodmap -e 'keycode 36 = KP_Enter'
## BTW, can you read my blogs written in Japanese ?
### well , I think Google Translator will write English better than I .

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
any updates on it??
I have an n800, so, does this browser have all functionality working? (fullscreen, tap-scrolling and right click)

Does the HildonKB work under Dillo??

thx!

MountainX 2009-11-25 14:44

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
Sorry if this is a dumb question...
Is a Dillo port available for the N900? If so, how well does it work?

geneven 2010-11-06 20:13

Re: Is there already a Dillo port?
 
We want Dillo! We want Dillo!

Or one of those other minimal browsers. Which work well with the N900?

To answer my own question:

Lynx is available via apt-get install lynx

I think dillo would be nicer, though.

Someone ported and uploaded the browser to n900. Little, funny browser. App loading is very quick but I see no use of this browser that don't even support javascript.

It's working nicely for me. I'm using it now, and it worked on the NY Times, Washington Post, and LA Times, which is all I've tried it with with thisversion.
