+# Dillo web browser
+
+Dillo is a multi-platform graphical web browser, known for its
+speed and small footprint, that is developed with a focus on
+personal security and privacy.
+
+The dillo3 series uses version 1.3.x of the FLTK GUI toolkit
+(http://fltk.org).
+
+The core team currently plans to focus on implementing the CSS
+feature of floating elements.  This will greatly improve
+dillo's web page rendering since many sites have adopted floats
+instead of tables. 
+
+The core team welcomes developers willing to join our workforce. 
+
+
+NOTE:  With  FLTK-1.3,  when  running  on X with Xft enabled (the
+default),  font naming is more restricted than it was with FLTK2
+as used by dillo2.  If your font_* preferences are no longer
+working well, please try the fc-list command as it is shown in
+dillorc.
+
+
+  Here's a list of some old well-known problems of dillo:
+
+         * no FRAMES rendering
+         * https code not yet fully trusted
+           (enable it with: ./configure --enable-ssl ).
+
+
+--------
+FLTK-1.3
+--------
+
+  If you don't have FLTK-1.3 (try 'fltk-config --version' to check),
+  you can get it from:
+
+     http://fltk.org/software.php
+
+  and build it like:
+
+     tar zxvf fltk-1.3.3-source.tar.gz      [or latest 1.3.x version]
+     cd fltk-1.3.3
+     less README.Unix.txt
+     make
+     sudo make install
+     cd ..
+
+------
+Dillo3
+------
+
+     tar jxvf dillo-3.0.5.tar.bz2
+     cd dillo-3.0.5
+     ./configure; make
+     sudo make install-strip
+
+  In order to use the hyphenation feature, pattern files from CTAN need
+  to be installed.
+  This can be done with the script dillo-install-hyphenation.
+  Call it with ISO-639-1 language codes as arguments, or without arguments
+  to get more help.
+
+
+------------
+Dpi programs
+------------
+
+  These  are  installed by "make install". If you don't have root
+access,  copy  "dillo"  and "dpid" to some directory in your path
+and  install  the  dpis by running "./install-dpi-local" from the
+top directory (they will be installed under ~/.dillo).
+
+
+----
+*BSD
+----
+
+  Dillo   compiles on *BSD systems; please report on this anyway,
+and note that you'll need GNU make.
+
+  If your dillo crashes or locks at times, just use:
+
+    ./configure --disable-threaded-dns
+
+  so dillo uses a single thread for name resolving.
+
+
+-------
+Solaris
+-------
+
+  Dillo may compile and run OK on Solaris but (please report):
+
+    * use gmake (a symbolic link make -> gmake works OK)
+
+  Solaris is very inconsistent so you may need to add/remove:
+
+  -lrt -lposix4
+
+  at link time.
