===================
 Dillo web browser
===================

dillo-2.2.1 is the last of the dillo-2.x series: 

The  2.x series were based on FLTK-2.0, which was never released.
Unfortunately  this  fact  left  dillo  out  of  distro's  native
packaging systems because of the sensible policy of not including
alpha software. 

The core team decided to switch to the more modern FLTK-1.3 which
at  this time, already saw its first release.

The  development effort shifted to the dillo-3.x branch long ago,
and it became the active one (dillo-2.x is unmaintained).

The  new  dillo-3.0  will  be  available  in a few weeks, when it
passes  the  final  stages  of  the release process. It has shown
excellent stability and comes with some nice new features too.


  Here's a list of some well-known problems:

         * no FRAMES rendering
         * no https (there's a barebones prototype).

-----
FLTK2
-----

  The FLTK2 library is statically linked into Dillo2.
  You can get it from fltk.org.
The recommended version is >= r6916. e.g. in:

  http://fltk.org/software.php?VERSION=2.0.x-r6916


------------
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.
