(2.8.6dev.7) +* update de.po, et.po from + http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/lynx +* clarification in manpage description of "-pseudo_inlines" option (Dan + Jacobson). +* correct parsing of embedded URLs which have parameters but no path, e.g., + base + http://wj55.org/Minutes.php + and embedded + ?date_meeting=2004-08-31 + (Debian #274619, report/analysis by Liam K Morland) -TD +* improve description of --assume-local-charset option (Debina #270915). +* revise configure script check whether _POSIX_C_SOURCE should be defined, + taking into account the _POSIX_SOURCE definition (report by PG) -TD +* add --with-system-type option to configure script to simplify testing the + case-statements involving $host_os -TD +* fix a memory leak in IPv6 version of HTGetAddrInfo() -TD +* modify HTCompressed() to choose the last viewer in the list with the best + quality. User-defined viewers appear after the built-in viewers, and by + choosing the last, lynx allows one to override the built-in defaults -TD +* add "deflate" to the encoding types which lynx implements. This consists + of several parts (report by Thorsten Glaser) -TD + + adapted logic from w3m's inflate.c to construct an internal "deflate" + decompressor. Tested this with + http://carsten.codimi.de/gzip.yaws/ + + simplify VMS-specific logic for trimming version in HTLoadFile(). + + combined VMS- and Unix logic for decompression in HTLoadFile() as a new + function decompressAndParse() to eliminate clutter. As a side-effect, + eliminate some memory leaks in cases where the file is not loaded properly. + + add/use new function HTEncodingToCompressType() to eliminate clutter. + + add "deflate" to the options menu. + + modify logic that builds "Accept-Encoding" value to omit encodings which + have no external decompressor associated. The effect of this change is to + allow lynx to behave as it did before adding the (possibly incomplete) + "inflate" support. + + add INFLATE_PATH to lynx.cfg, to optionally specify an external program + which can be used to decompress deflated files. For testing, a shell + script using w3m's utility, e.g., /usr/lib/w3m/inflate, sufficed. + NOTE: As currently implemented, lynx requires the external decompression + programs to be specified even if it can decompress using library calls. + + use ".zz" for suffix of downloaded (but not inflated) deflated files, + mapped to application/deflate and application/x-deflate. +* fix LYSetConfigValue(), which did not properly handle the CONF_PRG case which + is used to allow user configuring the program paths -TD +* fix content_is_compressed() function, which was checking for the absence only + of some nonstandard encodings (8bit, 7bit, binary) rather than for the + presence of the encodings as specified in RFC 2068 (gzip, compress, etc). + This makes lynx able to view a site + which puts the charset as the Content-Type (report by FLWM) -TD +* fix configure script: top-level makefile uses $(TAR), which was not defined + if --without-dired option was used (report by Gabor Z Papp) -TD + 2004-10-10 (2.8.6dev.6) * highlight the target and pause for 20 milliseconds when selecting a link with the mouse -GV |
