I finally landed my
patch that rewrites the event paths for Gtk events on the
Mozilla tip today. Yay, dialogs no longer
block the whole application anyore. At least on the tip. Now
all I have to do is get this onto the 1.0 branch and it will make
people a lot happier.
I've also been refocusing on gtk2 again since my gtk1.2 work is
pretty much done. I went through and cleaned up all the indenting
and tabs that I left in the gtk front end code from my frantic
coding explosion a couple of months ago. I hope that no one has
signifigant patches against it because if they do, they will have
to be remerged by hand.
I also put up some new Xft
rpms for 1.0rc1. They seem to work OK except some people have
reported HUGE fonts and it doesn't seem to work on pages that use
characters outside of the standard latin character set. Don't
know what's up with that but I don't have time to look at it at
the moment. In any case, they work on my home machine pretty
well. As usual, if you want to use it you need to have some
decent fonts intalled and a ~/.fonts.conf as I explained in the
original article in .gtk. (or was it .unix? I can't remember.)
