I have been fooling around with this and following some of the google
treasure, and it is a decent substitute for the nice simple command
line options that I want. But it has a few problems:
1. The 'print' DCOP command pops up the print menu and requires at
least one click. I can set the print type (to PDF file) and the
default file name ahead of time, but I still have to click on
"Print".
2. When I pass it the URL to display, it returns immediately, and I
have to insert a sleep to wait before sending the print command.
Is there any way to find out when the page is complete?
3. If I put in a one minute pause to allow even the slowest web sites
to fully load, that limits how many of these URLs I can process.
Is there any way to run multiple konqueror sessions at once?
#1 is a real show stopper. The others are merely annoying.
