Fast? dillo

Post #4,770 by kmself 8/12/01 6:08:02 PM Reply	Fast? dillo For pure raw speed and miniscule footprint, [link\|http://dillo.sourceforge.net/\|dillo] can't be beat. Source is 250KB, binary < 200KB. It's not a full-featured browser, and it remains under development. Currently (0.6.0), it's alpha code, though pretty stable, featureset is small: no cookies, no copy-from-browser, no authentication (I can't log into zIWETHEY). The development team's currently really exited over getting tables working. But for quick, simple, browsing, it's hot. Design intent is small systems, with much reference to iPaq in configuration docs. As for Moz, I'll wager that the Gecko-based browsers (Galeon, Skipstone) will beat it for speed when they catch up with recent mods. Both Galeon and Skipstone have been busted up pretty badly in the last week, though dev is making up the difference. I'm writing this in Skipstone presently. I still find Moz FUgly. -- Karsten M.

Post #4,950 by kmself 8/13/01 8:10:20 PM Reply	Ladles & Jellybeans: Galeon 0.11.5! As suspected, faster, lighter, fewer memory leaks, and a few UI tweaks, mostly better. I didn't realize how much I've come to depend on this browser until I didn't have it. Skipstone, Dillo, and w3m filled in bravely, but don't quite measure up. Peter, strongly suggest you take a look at this puppy, at least under Linux. OK, and a request: anyone got a good idea on how to write an MS Word mime type handler utilizing `antiword`, `less`, and a terminal window? Galeon wants to use StarOffice. I say puke!...and nevermind, I got it. See the galeon-user mailing list for details. -- Karsten M.
