There's supposed to be a htmlToXBel tool that's needed to import bookmarks from Mozilla. Anyone up to a port of that and including it in the Arora package?

Thanks.
Humdinger

This package misses imageformats folder which should contain libqgif.so and other image libs.

Download previous version of libpng from http://narod.ru/disk/20659791000/libpng.so.zip.html
and place it in lib folder inside Arora.

indeed this build has some problems with images - Haiku Alpha 2

 

 

0 # RE: Arora — pistooli 2010-06-20 13:02

it appears that if you install the qt environment from qt-haiku.ru (Qt 4.5.1 for Haiku r127 (minimal)), and after that this Arora file, then the above png/jpeg, etc... problem is not present...

If I'm not mistaken PoZorro included a lib folder with the older png library as temporary fix for the missing images.

Check in the Arora folder for it.

indeed. but I am afraid, that I was testing that "fixed build" previously.

This is because imageformats folder is missing from this package again. You can get it from Qt 4.5.1 for Haiku r127 (minimal) http://qt-haiku.ru/index.php?option=com_rokdownloads&view=file&task=download&id=64%3Aqt-4-5&Itemid=60

Is it just me?

From your screenshots, Minefield is the worst, Web+ 2nd, and Arora the best looking for font rendering.

Arora >>>> Webpositive = Minefield here

What is the Clicktoflash plug-in? Does this work on Haiku? With Youtube?

I think the current version 0.11 is wrong packaged. As there is a Arora folder in the root of the directory which holds the correct links for the libs.
I uploaded a correct and fixed version here:
https://rapidshare.com/files/778234509/Arora_0.11_fixed.zip
This one also fixes the images not showing.

 

 

0 # RE: RE: Arora — karl 2011-06-12 09:24

I'd update it, but don't even know how to download it from the link given, and I don't want to register just to download something.

I am putting together a QT superpack that will unzip to boot. Will include several browsers,framework etc.

Arora is so faster than bezilla or webpositive, but.. GIF images are not available in web pages (? icon)..
so instable,on alpha 1 r3, after few pages viewed it hangs up ad haiku starts debug window (with Qt webkit gcc2,gcc4 lib and hibryd also)
