Is there already a Dillo port?

Well, I just port that. Still not optimize the UI for maemo.
I want to make sure there's no existing port yet. Or it's wasting my time.

It's really fast on my N810. Even much much faster than Tear. But you know, it just support css not long ago, so it should compares to links, lynx, w3m. The better thing is it's not running in the terminal.

Wow this is awesome! Dillo is great, I used to use it all the time when I had a (much) slower machine. Good for basic web browsing for sure! Are you going to host your port somewhere? Or could I request you stick it on a free hosting service so I could get it?

I'm not going to say what I thought the title of this thread was at first glance...

Install libfltk2 first.

Well, I just packaged it up in deb format. After had a look at the code, I found it's hard to change to maemo style.
Currently, the fullscreen key doesn't work. The "Enter" key doesn't work. After input the web address in the url field, you need to press the center key, the one in the up, down, left, right keys.
And, it seems that only English or your locale pages can be displayed currently. The worst thing is the virtual keyboard doesn't work. Anyway, it works just ok on my N810 with hard keyboard.
Dillo doesn't have lots of menus. To change the preferences/settings, you need to copy the diallorc file to ~/.dillo. You can have a look at http://www.dillo.org/dillo2-help.html and http://www.dillo.org/FAQ.html.

Consistently crashes after about two minutes for me. The effort is much appreciated, though. And trying this version inspired me to install the version of Dillo available through Easy Debian. It's older but (in my limited experience) much more stable.

Perhaps someone will come along and Hildonize it. That's super cool of you to do what you did firstfan, I for one say thanks :)

Hey, last I'd seen, Dillo development was pretty much stalled. Looks like it's rolling pretty well now; I'll have to try it out again. Thanks for the port!

Dillo is cool; I'd love to see a fully usable tablet version.

Me likey! I use it on the desktop (and laptop) as well, when all I want is to display simple pages quicker, so this fits the bill. I just edited the bookmarks file, changed the preferences to save screen real estate and I'm all set.

It won't be easy to hildonize, though :)
