Hi all,
So, it's been rather longer than we might have hoped since the last
release, but what better way to bring in the new year than a new
release? Most of the changes are small touches which should make for a
better overall experience. We've also finally got a fully functional
myportal for the first time in the 1.3.x series smile For those on the
bleeding edge, you can now compile and run Galeon against Firefox or
Thunderbird, but it's not a completely perfect experience yet; with
Firefox, type-ahead-find doesn't work and to get a decent browsing
experience out of Thunderbird you'll need to do a custom build that adds
in a bunch of extensions they leave out by default, particularly
'wallet', 'cookie' and 'typeaheadfind'.
Changelog:
* Works with mozilla 1.7 -> 1.7.5, 1.8a3 -> 1.8a6 and trunk (Note
that there's a bug in 1.8a6 that prevents it working with galeon
if mozilla is compiled by FC3's gcc or gcc cvs. This is fixed in
trunk.)
* Try and stop the page from stealing focus from the location bar
* Jump to tabs that open javascript dialogs, secunia advisory
SA12712
* Make the location bar turn yellow for secure sites
* Myportal overhaul, including clickable folder headers, and working
file urls
* Fix cookie preferences
* Improved Javascript console
* Allow compilation against FireFox libs (no type-ahead-find though)
* Allow compilation against Thunderbird libs (requires custom
thunderbird build with extra components)
* Launch urls opened from the command line in a new tab if a galeon
window is on the current workspace
* Encode smart bookmarks better, so they work when the substituion
is in the path portion of the url
* Use the iso-codes package if it is available for language names
* Lots of other bug fixes
As usual, visit http://galeon.sourceforge.net to grab it.
Enjoy!
