wrestling dillo with ssh

[moB]

I enjoy using dillo for most of my web browsing. Unfortuantely it crashes with some pages.
Seems to have to do with fonts?

Something like this error: 940
http://www.dillo.org/cgi-bin/bugtrack/Dillo_query.cgi?what=he&Submit=Find+It!

 

WorkedBy: workaround@ see June 2010 mailing list archive for segfault thread discussing fixed/variable font aliases

I have not yet made sense of the directions :-P
Guess it's in here:http://lists.auriga.wearlab.de/pipermail/dillo-dev/

Also...
1. There is no wbar or menu entry when the ssh-enabled tcz is loaded, unlike the non-ssh version.
2. The bookmarks.dpi stays loaded in memory after shutdow.

These last two bugs I have been dealt with, to some degree.
Should remake the dep file, but have made a work-around instead.

Tried rewriting the /usr/local/tce.icons and putting it in the /opt/.filetool.lst, but the file is overwritten at startup.

Made a copy as a file on the HD and a script to overwrite the /usr/local/tce.icins file.
Run the script and need only alt-click on wbar to reload--it's good to go.

Here are my tce.icons mods:

Code: [Select]

...
i: /usr/share/pixmaps/aterm.png
t: Aterm
c: exec aterm -fn 10x20 -sh 94 -tint lightgreen -fade 76 -fg lightblue
...
i: /tmp/tcloop/dillo/usr/local/tce.icons/dillo2.png
t: Dillo
c: exec mydillo


This also does aterm customizations. I like that ("can read" font size and colors...)

To kill the residual bookmarks.dpi file I use a little dillo-loader script (attached).
Put in /usr/sbin.

These files can be added to /opt/.filetool.lst for restoration at GUI start, or make a script to intall them for those using norestore regularly.
I've tried both and works well.

Maybe I really should have just redone ssh-dillo's tcz, but I've not made packages yet for TC, so worked with what I can do first.

I see the check-install dep file now--looks like the help we all need to get these things done.
Must try it sometime :-)

Thanks for your comments and good work so far!

The bookmarks.dpi stays loaded in memory after shutdow.

dillo had been doing that as far as my memory reaches back (0.x.x ??).
Not only bookmark.dpi but other PIDs as well.

I remember dpidc stop but not exactly what it did...

What is ssh-enabled tcz or ssh-dillo?

Concur. Now that I've killed my nice fast Lenovo (wet! oh no) old PCs are my only systems.
TC and secure, compact software like dillo are very much the right thing.

Now if only it were keyboard controllable. I haven't really adapted to the mouse. I'm still learning to type! ("Keyboarding", it's now called ;-)

What is ssh-enabled tcz or ssh-dillo?

It is dillo.tcz (ssl enabled "2010/07/12 - new release: 2.2 - compiled with experimental ssl support").
The dillo2.tcz (non-ssh, "2009/09/15 - Bumped to 2.1.1 - built without xft") has no problem with wbar or menu.

The ssl version puts the entries in /tmp/tcloop/ only, not the correct layer (ie /usr/...)

I notice that my little ash/awk script does not always succeed at killing the dpi.
Perhaps it needs a little sleep before doing the killing?

Maybe I should have parsed the grep line differently?

I remember dpidc stop but not exactly what it did...

Now that sounds interesting. Could be better--use a proper command rather than the script.

Thanks!

Thanks!  It works much better now

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
# new version thanks to Hiro
dillo; sleep 1; dpidc stop && echo OK || echo "Error! dpi not stopped: `ps | grep -v grep | grep dillo`"
exit

Here's the console output:

Ok, there's a huge difference between SSH and SSL.

Does your download manager process get killed by dpidc stop?
You might want to search for more options regarding dpid in dillo's documentation.

I honestly don't understand how to do the icon/wbar stuff properly, sorry

FLTK is really starting to annoy me. I want a stable FLTK 1.3 release already so that we can eventually start dreaming about dillo 3...

D'oh! my bad 

I see that I said ssh at first instead of ssl... Quite right; they are not at all the same thing.
Sorry to be unclear/sloppy in my post.

My DL's are not broken by 'dpidc stop'.

Thanks again hiro for your elegant solution

To tinypoodle, roberts,  and the rest: thanks for help with the discussions. The forum always comes through for me.
