My latest observation with #5223 and OS 5.27 is that if you click in Netsurf's URL field but not double-click nor do Ctrl-A nor otherwise select its text, then Ctrl-C does put the text in the field onto the clipboard for pasting elsewhere. Only trouble is if you do highlight the text in the

I have similar settings for Netsurf on Iyonix and ARMX6 and, for example, a UTF-8 encoded file of Cyrillic characters displays correctly on both. But Wikipedia's nav bar language lists differ. Having deleted RUfl_cache, Iyonix shows all correctly except Georgian ARMX6 showed all correctly

If a problem font is added to one's RISC OS system after Netsurf has established its RUfl_cache file, it seems that on next start-up Netsurf can hang the machine without having given any error information to help diagnose the problem. When this happened to me, I'd forgotten that I'd added a
