K-Meleon Web Browser Forum
I have been looking at using k-Meleon for my default browser but I was hoping you may be able to answer some questions for me.
-How do I change font styles & setting in the browser.
-What e-mail client should I use with the browser.
-Is there any RSS extensions available.
-Is k-Meleon hungry when it comes to memory.
I am currently using SeaMonkey for both browser & e-mail & from what I have seen this browser loads faster than SeaMonkey very fast in-fact, If you can help me with these answers that would be fantastic.
I forgot 1 question is K-Meleon at the same security level as Firefox\Thunderbird & Seamonkey.
1.) For the browser via system - for visited pages e.g. from usercontent.css.
2.) K-Meleon will sniff for Your system's default mail program ( I would keep SeaMonkey for mail since I like Sylpheed, Tunderbird & SeaMonkey for mail programs
.
3.) NewsFox is integrated & MicroRSS available at Gary Gofstein's homepage.
4.) K-Meleon is less resource hungry than IE, Firefox Opera, SeaMonkey or any modern browser c. system requirements. It uses less RAM than Firefox or SeaMonkey.
5.) K-Meleon uses the same HTML rendering engine as Seamonkey - the security level is about the same.

p. s. K-Meleon loads faster. But You have to try whether it is faster on Your machine for the specific pages You visit often.

What's the easist way to import my SeaMonkey bookmarks & how am I able to clear form information & history.
They both use the same bookmarks system - I would copy SeaMonkey bookmaks.html to K-Meleon profile or direct the K-Meleon's bookmarks plugin to use it inside ./apdata/mozilla.org/SeaMonkey/profile directory K-Meleon's default profile folder is also in apdata & has the same structure inside K-Meleon subfolder.

p. s. In Forum You will find lots of question after Firefox bookmarks., which is more or less the same problem.
