I compiled the Dillo browser and posted a PND, on the repo.
This is a good GUI browser for reading sensible websites.
It's very light and efficient, and starts almost instantly.
Just don't expect it to work well if javascript is required.
This version does support CSS, don't expect layout to be perfect.
I wrote an article for our pandoralive.info blog
on how to do a port, using this Dillo port as an example.
Issues tracker:
- Fixed - Asks about each https site, every time. I'd like to get it to use certificate authority certs.
- Fixed - does not work right on FAT32 SD cards - this always seems to trip me up! will fix this ASAP.
- Fixed - dpid and perhaps other processes stay open after close Dillo, prevents PND unmount and hangs minimenu!
- Bug - foreign pages aren't displaying correctly (I'm getting squares instead).
- Wish - stop flickering ... http://boards.openpandora.org/index.php/topic/12464-dillo-a-fast-light-browser-without-javascript/?p=236151
- Wish - runtime zooming
- Wish - kinetic scrolling on click and drag
- Wish - option, to keep one blank window/tab open after closing the last tab, to avoid accidental shut-down
