Descriptions of the new macro functions are in the wiki (need some development guide). A tiny bit of documentation for the menus.cfg profile:

Quote

Syntax for menus.cfg in profile :
You can redefine a menu totally by defining it like usual. If you want to
add an item to a menu you have to put ! in front of the name.

Ex:

!&Tools {
MyTools = ...
}

Position can be specified with | using a label or an index. Ex:

MyTools = cmd | OtherTools // Inserted before OtherTools
MyTools = cmd | cmd2 // Inserted before item with command cmd2
MyTools = cmd | 5 // Inserted at position 5

To delete an item:

!MyMenu {
-I Don't want this // Command or label
}

About the translations, I have not found the old locale.cfg file. Which files are needed to be translated to have an integrated translation on the final release?

How many time do we have to finish the translations before the final release is here?

Dorian give all the versions in english.

Use the kmeleonloc.dll and language.cfg of 1.0.2

99% of the translation will be ok, for the rest, it will be a very little work.

For chrome, as I haven't now unzipped the archive, I dont know if it's in embed.jar or outside of it in a jar. The translation as for the old version is just a comparison between previous and actual files before copying/pasting in new translated jar.

You can use the old es-ES chrome, if You want. That chrome will work.


Else You could try/test the old translations.

embed.jar has: content, locale & skin in an unified jar.

The old translations could work together with embed.
Technically the translations for embed can be outside embed.jar.
If You replace the entries in installed-chrome.txt
that point to translation inside embed.jar with
entries that point to old es-ES.jar, ES.jar es-win.jar. k-meleon will
show You whether they will work. He will make the yellow window
that we had when some files were not utf-8 if something is wrong
e.g. item missing or defined differently.

If they work You can in a later step remove en-US locale inside embed.jar
( to remove unused Anglo items - if You want that ).

Do remember to delete the chrome.rdf and overlays.rdf for the test.

Thanks, trying it out now.

Questions regarding the new cfg functions:

a) Are my shortcuts in accel.cfg in the profile (created from preferences) supposed to overwrite the default ones? Because that doesn't work...

b) How do I make "Groups" a sub-menu of "Tools"?

c) How do I rename "Hotlist" to "H"?

d) How can I re-order the menu to get "Bookmarks H[otlist] Favorites" instead of "Bookmarks Favorites Hotlist"?

e) I put a ra.kmm file into the macros subfolder of my profile. It doesn't seem to be recognized in any way.

[I restarted K-M all the time, just to make sure...]

e.) make test with hiding/unhiding one that works e.g. mtypes.kmm.

According to what i tried it needs browser restart to activate a macro.

Seems like there are some problem with mouse accel

If you need to change the main menu so much, just redefine it completely.

And what is it supposed to do? I currently have no problem to run macro from profile.

I like to subscribe (RSS or e-mail) to all new releases of K-meleon (stable, beta, alpha etc). Is that possible? If not I suggest that a forum thread is created for announcing releases, e.g "K-Meleon releases", so releases can be easily tracked.

For some reason, the gui is no longer themed by XP's theme service, is this a known problem?

Quote

Yep. I changed and added them in the default accel.cfg file for now...

So much? I'd considered that minor changes. :-)

"Groups" takes too much space in the toolbar considered the fact that I hardly ever use it. BTW: Removing a menu like this through menus.cfg would be great as well.

Any chance that you can add such flexibility (renaming and moving menus)?

By completely redefining the menu I'll lose upgradeability, will I?

Quote

And what is it supposed to do? I currently have no problem to run macro from profile.

There are several macros. One should increase numbers, one highlight words, one prepare the page for printing, ... The defined keyboard shortcuts were dead. It's working now after I (re-)defined the shortcuts in accel.cfg. BTW: Is that recommended or not?

Have you measured if the GUI is faster, now?


Another problem: URL Bar search doesn't seem to work. K-M says "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded" when I enter "some test", although keyword autosearch is enabled.

Hi all people, i'm tryed testing Kmeleon 1.1a2 Gecko 1.8.1, but k-meleon.exe not run in my Win2000 SP4. Not error message is showed, anything K-M windows showed, anything K-M process loaded in Task Manager. Not new Profiles be created in K-M folder. Must i copy an old profile to run Kmeleon 1.1a2 Gecko 1.8.1?
I not had loaded any K-M process when i tried but, also i try run with new feature command-line option -new, with identical results.

Help!

desga2, I have K-M1.1a2 running on my Win2000. Like you, at first it seemed to get "stuck." The problem I found was that my firewall had to contend with too many processes at installation so it timed out. I disabled the firewall and another program called Spyware Terminator, and let K-M install itself. Then, turned these programs back on. K-M now runs fine.

Same problem on Win2000. I've had to install it in w98se to test it.

No problems here on 2000.

In later K-M versions my Firewall (Kerio) always ask me about execution of new programs. Whit this new alpha 1.1 version not ask me. I tried to disable Firewall Applications network security module, but Kmeleon 1.1a2 Gecko 1.8.1 not run.

It isn't a problem with my Firewall. Any idea?

I tried copy next files not included in Kmeleon 1.1a2 Gecko 1.8.1;
profile.ini
msvcr71.dll
msvcp71.dll

Not results was being obtained.

@desga2:
The following DLLs are not part of the download:
dbghelp.dll
msvcp71.dll
msvcr71.dll
Copy them from a previous 1.x installation into the application folder.

Not are only my system, i try in other computer with similar caracteristics Win2000 SP4 (es-ES) without Firewall, and nothing of nothing.
Is it only a problem with Win2000 SP4 es-ES?

I tried to copied this files msvc*.dll, except dbghelp.dll, this file is only for crash.dll kplugin. Nothing results.

I made all you have made, desga2, and I having same problems.
I have win2000 sp4-es ES also.

Have you tried to launch it with admin rights ?

Try without any kplugins.

I'm admin user, and i tried rename kplugins folder and nothing.

I updated Visual C++ (vcredist.exe). Wrong yet.

As I said, I had a problem "installing" it at first until I diaabled the Firewall and Spyware Terminator both of which interfere with installs since you are forced to give permission for processes they have not seen before. I will go through the process I used since these differences may have a bearing:

I unzipped the download to a folder and then transferred the whole folder over to the Program Files folder. I went into the folder created there and double clicked on the K-M program executable. It backed up the previous profile, and ran fine.

The Win2000 machine was using K-M 1.01 and had not been upgraded to 1.02.

The original profile did not use the CSS style sheets nor the Flash Block.

The only msvc*71.dll files are listed in the K-M 1.0 folder. These files do not exist in the new K-M 1.1a2 folder.

One other anomalie - when I go to Preferences-General in the boxes that say Settings Folder and Plugins folder, these are blank, but the K-M runs fine anyway.

This isn't our problem. I tried to instal in other Win2000 SP4 (es-ES) system without any Firewall or Spyware program installation and not ran.

This isn't the problem because late 1.02 version (and olders) run fine.

-Edited Note;
In M$ web are only vcredist.exe version 6 SP4. For Win2000 please read this link felipe;
Vcredist.exe Info

If you read this vcredist.exe version 6 SP5 not is compatible with Win2000!
Win2000 must be update only with his Service Packs (in this vcredist.exe files are includes).

CCF version:

http://kmeleon.et8.net/K-Meleon1.1a2_1.8.1_CCF.exe

some minor changes + adblock plus for K-Meleon

[Bug Report]

1. Rebarmenu() doesn't work in this version. Ctrl + M can't show the compact menu.
System: XP sp2

Another glitch: Clicking the home button on the toolbar opens a new window.

Oh, and Edit - Preferences claimed that "Klassic" was my skin, although it was/is Phoenity_ra from my profile, set directly in prefs.js while the browser was closed.
