Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

nice, tho i wonder, how will it deal with crash recovery?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

Hey there, I must say I'm loving tear! I installed it today and am very happy using it as a replacement for microb. It's defitiny faster at rendering and I love the kinetic scrolling, very smooth to use once a page is loaded.. I just have noticed a couple things I'd like to politely inquire about.. Whenever I open a text field, it brings up the thumboard fine, but it always seems to paste whatever was last in the address bar for some reason.. A little annoying.. Also I often hide the address bar in full screen mode when using microb to make use of the entire screen space and am wondering if there is a way to do this in tear? Thanks so much for this project you're doing an awesome job and I'm loving it so far!

HI is the app completed to a workable standard or should i wait for confirmation--a faster browser is always a good thing-keep up the good work

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

Why don't you just try ? Thank to qole and his Tear repository it's now very easy, and it has no impact on microb, so you can have both... I find the latest version quite usable.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

This browser is very workable. I use it as a replacement for most sites. Only a few issues with different sites here and there.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

I cannot install tear nor its libraries.
What am I doing wrong ?

As shown below I tried everything but no response only missing dependencies.

Is there a clear manual how to install this ?

Code:

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

skatebiker: if you add my repository (see a few posts back) it should install...

Just do an 'apt-get -f install' to pull in the dependencies.

Might I ask why we're opening yet another 3rd party repo instead of pushing it to Extras? . . .
