Re: MSOHEV.DLL keeps breaking my Seamonkey icons
MCBastos wrote: Or so I thought. Turns out that there is a Microsoft piece of crap that insists on ruining it: the so-called Office HTML Icon Handler (MSOHEV.DLL). It is installed (no choice about it) with Office 2003, and modifies the standard way Explorer handles HTML files: if it finds a line in the HTML header indicating that an Office application generated that file, it does two things: 1. If you right-click the file and choose Edit, it will open the file on the so-called appropriate application (usually Word, but sometimes Excel or PowerPoint) instead of on the default HTML editor (Notetab, a plaintext editor, in my case). 2. It will change the icon and filetype description in Explorer to indicate the file special status as an office HTML file. (...) Until, that is, when it *broke*. Now all my HTML files display the unknown file type icon (although they are listed correctly as Seamonkey Document). (...) Has anybody managed to tame this beast? I just checked and found that this reappeared on my PC as well. This is what I did to fix it: 1. Start / Run - regedit 2. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT - .html - SeaMonkeyHTML 3. change DefaultIcon value to C:\Program Files\SeaMonkey\chrome\icons\default\html-file.ico (change to fit your environment) 4. remove ShellEx/IconHandler 5. trigger reloading Explorer icons (I changed an entry in Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/File Types; Tweak UI's Repair/Rebuild Icons should work, too) You can do most of the above with WAssociate http://www.xs4all.nl/~wstudios/Associate/index.html, just don't click the icon button (at least for me the application locks up then and I have to kill it using the Task Manager).

I kept wondering why the download manager didn't kick in and come to front when you start a download. well I had to change this setting: browser.download.manager.focusWhenStarting;true It originally set to false which means you don't know you've even started a download until you actually open the Manager.

Close Window with Last Tab?
I'm a longtime user of Multizilla, and I miss lots of its features in Seamonkey 2. I guess I'll have to wait for most of them until HJ has time to finish his Suiterunner-compatible port... But, until then, it brought to fore a few Seamonkey issues -- ones that, I think, could be addressed in the main code. For instance, I got used to using Ctrl-W to close tabs. In Multizilla, there is/was an option to keep it from closing the window when you close the last tab -- instead, it loads a new (blank/home) tab automatically. In Seamonkey, though, if you Ctrl-W the last tab, the whole window closes. Furthermore, if you have no other Seamonkey windows opened, the whole application shuts down -- that is, a moment's distraction may need almost half a minute to recover. This is certainly by design, because the file menu changes accordingly. However, this doesn't happen if you close tabs using the mouse (if you disable the hide tabbar when there is only one tab showing feature, of course). The pie-in-the-sky solution would be to have totally separate shortcuts to close tab and close window -- but I realize that after all this time, it would hurt more than it would help, since people are already used to current behaviour. So, what about a preference to make the keyboard shortcuts to behave the same way as the close-tab mouse buttons? I found a reference to a Firefox preference ( browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab ) that does exactly that, and I tried to create it and set it to false in Seamonkey 2, but it didn't work -- apparently it's not present in SM. Implementing it would solve this problem, and keep it consistent with Firefox. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Re: Back to 1.18

So many sites don't display well in SM1/FF2 these days. There's that, certainly. For me, a few other things: - My bank here in Brazil supported Firefox flawlessly, but had some sort of weird bug with the old Seamonkey that rendered the site unusable. Now I don't have to fire another browser for banking. OK, that's covered under rendering engine, I guess... - Extensions. Yes, I lost Multizilla for the time being, and I do miss it. But a lot of other extensions which were unavailable for Seamonkey, or available only in old versions, now are within my reach. For instance, DownThemAll... the only version which ran on 1.1.x was the one Philip Chee made available, and that lacks a lot of later improvements, such as the AntiContainer plugin. - The integrated RSS reader in Mail. Sure, I was using Newsfox with the old Seamonkey -- but it's a separate window, I had to manually start it, it's slw, and the browser is basically unusable while it checks my 6o-plus feeds, one by one. The one in Mail is more basic than NewsFox, but it's very fast, checks more than one feed at once, and works in the background without bothering me. - Good extension management is certainly a plus. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Auto fill in SM 2.0
I'm not sure auto fill is the proper term. In prior versions of SM when I had to enter a username and password, it offered the option of saving them (except on some financial sites where that authors had apparently blocked it). When I next went to the site, the information was automatically entered, if I had authorized saving it. In SM 2, the information is not automatically entered until I put in the first letter of the user name, a minor hassle when one has multiple usernames, and not, in my opinion, an improvement. My real complaint, however, is that SM now is memorizing what I put into other fields, and I cannot find a way to control this. My aged fingers often make mistakes, and I now have about five versions of my address, one of which is spelled right, and anything else I have ever entered that has the first letter of my address: my user name, once I guess the right first letter, is an embarrassing litany of every misspelling I have made, and this apparently will keep growing like a cancer. So how can I delete the many misspellings and the extraneous words that pop up now, short of going back to an earlier version of SM?. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

You can also click in the empty box again to get the menu of all proposals directly. Though I prefered the auto-fill, too. So how can I delete the many misspellings and the extraneous words that pop up now, short of going back to an earlier version of SM?.

That has been my experience and one of the reasons I have reverted back to 1.1.18.

Re: Close Window with Last Tab?
Interviewed by CNN on 5/12/2009 19:51, Martin Freitag told the world: MCBastos schrieb: So, what about a preference to make the keyboard shortcuts to behave the same way as the close-tab mouse buttons? I found a reference to a Firefox preference ( browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab ) that does exactly that, and I tried to create it and set it to false in Seamonkey 2, but it didn't work -- apparently it's not present in SM. Implementing it would solve this problem, and keep it consistent with Firefox. That's probably an idea, maybe file an enhancement-bug on this. Changing the default behaviour would mess up what many people are used to I guess. regards OK, I filed it as Bug 533125 ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=533125 ) -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Bug 105955 - MailNews Should be Viewable in a Tab - reopen?
I recently ran into Bug 105955 ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105955 ), which echoes some of my thoughts about Seamonkey. It was marked as WONTFIX back in 2002 by Hixie, under the reason that we should be separating the programs instead of joining them. Well, Thunderbird and Firefox are separated now, so in that regard he was right, but Seamonkey is geared into better integration between mail and browser -- so that logic no longer applies. Daniel Wang's comments on the problems caused by different UI in the modules make a lot more sense, but still, this is almost 2010, not 2002. A lot has happened since then. The Firefox team is looking into a Google Chrome-like window layout, with tabs on top. Seamonkey might go that way eventually too -- and in that case, Wang's reservation disappear. So... maybe is time to revisit this bug and see if it's worth reopening it? Maybe not even targeting for SM 3, but reserving it as a long-term goal, as future? -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
