There is also an app you can run from the command line:

Code:
python2.5 /usr/bin/tear-bookmarks/tear-bookmarks.py

I assume you mean if you want to get at that functionality from, say, Personal Menu or Personal Launcher instead of through the side panel.

For the most part, yes. It just runs the app that appears when you click the 2nd item, "Bookmarks" from the side panel.

So one could still keep the MicroB bookmarks shortcut and use this command for Tear Bookmarks simultaneously?

This command launches the bookmark editor, though you can open bookmarks from there too.

Thanks so much. Tear really fixes the n810's key weakness, a not-quite-fast-enough browser. I really love the quick javascript enable/disable (especially as a Opera fan since '98).

hrmf, i wonder if the slowdowns i reported earlier was from webkit having made use of available ram, and eating its way into swap, at the same time as its trying to process a largeish website.

writes to SD seems to pretty much exclude all other activity while its going on...

Here are some proposed patches for the browser-proxy script, which fix a bug, improve performance, and add a few new features.
  • 01-fix-multiple-window-bug.patch: workaround for the bug where trying to open a URL when Tear isn't running results in two browser windows.
  • 02-use-gobject-instead-of-gtk-for-main-loop.patch: use a GObject main loop instead of the GTK+ main loop. This reduces memory usage by a few megabytes and removes the dependency on python2.5-gtk2 (you now need python2.5-gobject, which is already installed if you have python2.5-gtk2).
  • 03-use-python-dbus-interface-instead-of-dbus-send.patch: use dbus-python's interface to D-Bus instead of running the external dbus-send utility. Might be a small performance win.
  • 04-add-continuous-mode.patch: adds support for staying open in the background, which makes opening URLs via D-Bus faster. Has about a 2 MB memory footprint when doing so.
  • 05-kill-browserd-if-we-launched-it.patch: if we have to start browserd when launching MicroB, kill it when MicroB exits instead of letting it continue as the script currently does. The script has to stay running while MicroB is in use, so more memory is used when MicroB is running and continuous mode is off, but we save memory when MicroB isn't in use and browserd is disabled.

One more (blame the attachment limit):
  • 06-support-microb-as-default-browser.patch: make it possible for the script to launch MicroB as the default browser. Useful if you want MicroB as the default browser, but don't want to have browserd running all the time. With this in place, it also wouldn't be too difficult to add support for a control panel or some other UI to change the default browser ...
