[Dillo-dev] Dillo FLTK2 alpha release for developers


Mon Oct 1 02:09:25 CEST 2007


Hi there,

  This  is  an  alpha release of the next generation of the Dillo
web  browser.  The  code  underwent  a major rewrite: significant
parts  of  the  codebase  were  ported  to C++, and the rendering
engine now uses the FLTK2 library instead of GTK1.

  Please read the README inside dillo's tarball.

  Developers  willing  to  join  the  project  and contribute are
highly  encouraged.  Sebastian  did an excellent work documenting
the new dillo widget engine (just run doxygen inside DW tree).

  This  is  a good milestone in the project's history, we hope to
be able to continue working on it. This is one step ahead, and we
need other developers help.

  Please note that this code is under GPL3!

  BTW, if you want to know what antialiased utf-8 is, just go to:

     http://www.gnu.org/home.fa.html

  after compiling dillo-fltk.


  Here are the instructions on how to get it working:

                                   // necessary development packages...
  cd test; ./demo                  // You can play with it too!
  cd ..

  exit
  cd ..

  cd dw-testbed-0.0.43j
  ./configure
  make
  cd test                          // You can test it from here
  cd ../..
  doxygen                          // Excellent documentation in html
  cd html; dillo index.html        // (start browsing docs here)
  cd ../..
  ln -s dw-testbed-0.0.43j dw-testbed      // Don't forget this link

  tar jxvf dillo-f15f.tar.bz2
  cd dillo-f15
  ./configure
  make
  su
  make install                      // Needed for dpis
  exit
  cd src
  ./dillo-fltk                      // This is is it!
  cd ..

--------
dillorc2
--------

  There's a "dillorc2" file inside the tarball's top directory:
    cp dillorc2 ~/.dillo/
  that will let you use the new and old dillo without trouble.
