Re: IBrowse 2.5 finally on its way?

iBrowse doesn't actually render amiga.org in 20 seconds. It starts to display web page when some pictures a loaded, it still loads pictures quite much longer, but web page is useable.

I think that Chris doesn't have anything against it that somebody would fix Netsurf to use class act. He just don't want to do it.

@Thorham I'm little curious, why not OS3.9? What kind of Amiga you have? I do know that it is possible to make OS3.0/1 perfectly useable, but it It just easier with OS3.5/9.

But to be honest i could have compiled netsurf commenting out the checks myself, except its low priority, because netsurf build system needs so much fiddling with before you can produce an executable and start to edit the code.

You can esily compile it and play with code.

"easily".. i love these comments.. have you even tried that? then why none uses it? this script is for cygwin, and im not installing cygwin again, if you know what i mean. i even ran it and looked it through on my vmware lubuntu and since it made some tweaking necessary postponed it.


I use it and if I can use it, then it is easy to use.

sigh... cant you anwer properly? so you are running it on cygwin. you simply followed the guide step for step, thats why its easy for you. what part of my comment: "this script is for cygwin, and im not installing cygwin again" was unreadable for you?

Usually guides are made to make things easier. So following the guide step by step is a default. I just told about my experience of it, I didn't ask anything from you, you asked.

First you try to be sarcastic, hinting that I haven't actually used it.

Then you ask your questions, hinting that it is so difficult to use and nobody hasn't actually used it.

Of course I use cywin, only possible question was do I run it top of windows or linux.

As a conclusion about netsrcipt is, that it is easy to use if you follow included guide. It shouldn't be a surprice, if it is harder to get work if you don't follow guide.
