Dillo-0.7.3

Introduction to Dillo

Dillo is a fast, small footprint graphical browser. Although version 0.7.3 is alpha code, it is stable. Dillo does not support java or javascript, and the current version does not support FTP, HTTPS or frames. It is, however, very fast and so is useful on older, slower machines. It supports downloads and can support cookies.

Package information

Installation of Dillo

Note: Dillo has no mechanism of character set selection and always uses iso8859-1. If this character set is not appropriate, replace all occurences of iso8859-1 to the desired character set in src/dw_style.c.

Install Dillo by running the following commands:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc &&
make &&
make install
