With these kinds of problems, I typically resort to putting 'dumpln' calls into the source. But I'm not sure if dumpln works normally on Windows or whether additional steps are necessary, like passing -console on the command line. Try it if you like. I hope some other Windows users can step up and help figure out what's going on. I don't like it when Conkeror is in an "in between" state like this. -- John Foerch _______________________________________________ Conkeror mailing list [email protected] https://www.mozdev.org/mailman/listinfo/conkeror
