Where does it store the cache? If its being stored in the NAND, then it should be changed to being stored on the SD card.

 

[mcobit]

I am not sure if it stores cache at all, I couldn't find it out, as it does not create any additional folders in home. If someone finds out please report.

Please remember, that this is still in developement. New features will surely be added step by step.
I just ported it and can't do anything about bugs and freaturerequests.

peelie: You could just have read the documentaion (or thewhole first post)

Guys, this one is in a extremely early state of development, however as the name implies it really IS lightweight, this is by far the fastest webbrowser after Lynx & Co. on Pandora.
Wasn't there a topic vote somewhere about the next "Standard Browser" for Pandora OS? Well guys, no need for it anymore, this one should win by default.

Updated to 1.0 see first post.

These guys are really fast!

 

[mcobit]

Updated to 1.1 - now with downloads!

See first post.

NetSurf actually seems a bit faster to me, and Links is faster yet. (Lynx is probably even faster, but it's too foreign for me to get used to)

As for "standard browser", my vote would go to Links, as it's the only one that seems tailor-made for the Pandora's controls & speed. (it doesn't load everything, but its speed makes up for it and it serves my needs mostly)

Updated to 1.2

[mcobit]

Updated to 1.3

See first post!

 

[Zero3K]

IThe new version (1.3) has a cache that writes to the NAND instead of the SD card. Please take a look at its source to see if its possible to be changed. If not, then you should have the PND make a symbolic link that forces the cache to be written to the SD card.

 

[mcobit]

Where are the cachefiles located on the nand? Can't seem to find them.

Edit: Ok, found it at ~/Applications/Cache/Lightweight2
Will have a look this evening to see, if it can be redirected.

Thanks for finding!

Edit2: Found the problem:
I gets its cachedir from (QDesktopServices.CacheLocation) I'll change that to (QDesktopServices.HomeLocation) and make a new pnd this evening.

 

[mcobit]

Problem solved!

 

[Lorkile]

Supposing I understand correctly, so no DL available of 1.3 until Ed approves right? I'm fairly certain I would like to test once your latest is available, and I don't particularly understand the first website you linked to after a brief look so will await word here.

Thanks for this, supposing it's speedier and lighter on resources than Firefox I could see it replacing it for my normal use.

 

[Zero3K]

Here's a link to it that mcobit gave me in the IRC channel for the Pandora:

[LINK REMOVED]

Please check the File Archive for v1.4.

 

[Lorkile]

Thanks! I'll be sure to put in some time with it soon.

 

[mcobit]

Updated to 1.4 the link of Zero3K is still valid, until ED approves the updates.
