Re: [Freedos-user] Dillo web browser for DOS
I wonder if a workaround would be to detect Dillo on the web site Please don't do it like that ... it's just recycling this B.S. technology: if (detectIE5) make IE5 happy else if (detectIE5.5) make IE5.5 happy else if (detectIE6) make IE6 happy else if (detectOpera) make Opera happy else ASS'ume IE7 and make IE7 happy endif endif endif endif So my proposal is: simplification YES, detect Dillo (or Arachne or DOSLynx or whatwever) NO. SSL, FTP and uploads of files are not supported yet. Upload works mostly in Win32 Dillo. Here is a screenshot of freedos.org using dillo for Win32 and View mobile site http://tinypic.com/r/2q18ig0/5 ??? I can't see it :-( Anyway, the freedos.org layout is an issue, but for me the wishlist sorted by importance would be: 0. Hangers 1. Uploads 2. HTTPS / SSL 3.

Re: [Freedos-user] Dillo fonts
I'm assuming the screenshot is from Dillo for DOS Right ... shot in DOS with Dillo-DOS, uploaded in Windaube with Dillo-Win32. Dillo is rendering all text in fixed-pitch (monospace) font, and all in the same font size. Shot please. I'm *not* loading DOSLFN since I got the SFN version of Dillo Me too ;-) -- All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.

Besides, IE9 is already out with IE10 (Win7 only) on the way. And even MS is jumping on the (complex, unfinished) HTML5 bandwagon (why??). So none of that helps our cause. (Really, all this bloat for hypertext??) Anyway, the freedos.org layout is an issue, but for me the wishlist sorted by importance would be: 0. Hangers 1. Uploads 2. HTTPS / SSL 3.

Re: [Freedos-user] Dillo fonts
Hi Marcos, in this beta version the TEMP environment variable has to be set to point to the Dillo for DOS directory where the fonts subdirectory with the fonts is located. You see fixed-pitch fonts if Dillo does not find the fonts. Georg - Original Message - From: Marcos Favero Florence de Barros fav...@mpcnet.com.br To: freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Monday, November 21, 2011 10:55 PM Subject: [Freedos-user] Dillo fonts Thanks to Georg Potthast, Benjamin Johnson, and especially to Jorge Arellano Cid for creating Dillo. I have a question about fonts. In my computer, running under pure FreeDOS, Dillo is rendering all text in fixed-pitch (monospace) font, and all in the same font size. However, the screenshot in the FreeDOS webpage shows proportional spaced fonts and multiple sizes. I'm assuming the screenshot is from Dillo for DOS, i.e., that it is able to show proportional fonts. Also, the limitations section in the User Guide says nothing about fonts. I'm *not* loading DOSLFN since I got the SFN version of Dillo, and all font names in the 'fonts' folder are indeed short names. I checked the paths in dillo.bat. I also re-installed Dillo twice using different home folders, but have been unable so far to get the proportinal fonts. Help is appreciated.
