Facebook works fine. so does FOX. Gmail always fails.
I thought it had started failing after a few seconds, but that is not consistent. It segfaulted almost immediately as I clicked gmail several times.

Looks like it doesn't crash anymore...

One sugestion:
Make an option to set the predetermined zoom level or make it remember the last page zoom value.

Agreed. gmail seems to be working fine with 1.8

I need to bite the bullet and replace the settings with an actual database so I can store more information. It is also important to store the "user agent" so you can use macuco to browser standard web sites as well.

Today I published the first version of Macuco for Meego. Now that I think I figured out the packaging I can get back to thinking about features.

Thank you both for the testing and feedback.

It is has been renamed to "Chrochik Macuco". Maybe you searched under 'M'.

Re: [Announce] Macuco(2) on n900 - "iphone faker" browser
 

Hello,
I've found that macuco2 is great in showing my google streetview page in http://www.debernardis.it/strade3-3.html - while the stock microb browser doesn't show the images correctly (maybe due to javascript bugs?).
In fact, by now it's the best native browser for that particular page, which before I tried macuco2 I had to open with kazehakase under easy debian, adding a significant overhead.

Using a javascript-only page like that is the only way to get streetview on the n900, as far as I know.

Now I'd like to open that directly throug a shell script, passing its url as a parameter, but I haven't found how to. I'd like also to tell macuco2 to open in fullscreen, 100% zoom, and with default user agent.

Is it possible with the present version? And, if not, could you possibly hack a new version which can be invoked with parameters?

Thanks, Ernesto.

Ernesto,
The current version does not have this capability. I will try to include it on the next release.

By the way, having streetview has been a common request for my other application GeePS and I also plan to implement it on the next release - just so you have even more options :)

Re: [Announce] Macuco(2) on n900 - "iphone faker" browser
 

Just downloaded the app and was thinking it could do with looking a little prettier, no offence meant.

How easy would it be to make the background black instead of white and to change the menu icons for iPhone-ish looking ones, just for the sake of cohesion and aesthetics?

ie, is it a viable mod for me as the end user to perform or are the images hardcoded? (not had time to dig around in the filesystem yet as am still at work).

Thanks.

The initial page (homepage) is is just a HTML page I created to help users find some of the web sites optimized for the ipod/iphone. It sits on my site, not on the app. The application just opens it by default.

You can create your own version of it and, if you do and decide to share with the other users, send me the html for it and I can make it into an option.

You can get the current HTML and images at: http://www.crochik.com/macuco/.

p.s. I haven't worked on the list of web sites since I first created macuco2. If you (or anybody else) has some good links to add to it let me know.
