AFAIK Georg Potthast wrote a port that worked in DOS based on the work that Benjamin Johnson for Windows. I believe it was based on 3.0p4:

Unfortunately, none of those ports made their way back to the main project. However, if there is enough interest I would be willing to merge them. I'm not very familiar with DOS/FreeDOS, so probably someone would have to help us to update the changes, but probably doable between 3.0 and 3.2.0.

Really happy to see a new version. I wrote about 3.1, 18 months ago:

I don't know if you saw that, but I asked a question in there I am still curious about. In the long time period that Dillo was largely idle, there were various forks.

I know of 2 that seem to be dead now...

DilloNG

https://github.com/w00fpack/dilloNG

D+

https://sourceforge.net/projects/dplus-browser/

But two others seem to be active...

Dillo-Plus

https://github.com/crossbowerbt/dillo-plus

<- active as recently as September 2024, i.e. since my article.

Mobilized Dillo:

https://www.toomanyatoms.com/software/mobilized_dillo.html

<- active last month -- and the page links to an article of mine. Nice. :-)

I wondered if you were in communication with any of those developers, and if you have managed to bring in any of their code or improvements?

FLTK is now up to 1.4.4, released in July.

https://github.com/fltk/fltk/releases/tag/release-1.4.4

Are you using the latest FLTK?

Just curious, not challenging or anything.

Thanks for the article and for including all the references.

We now adhere to https://semver.org/ as much as we can, where each of the three version numbers has a meaning, so it would be nice to include them all. I'll mention it in the next release (and probably add it to the changelog as well).

I'm in contact with the Mobilized Dillo developer and we exchange some patches from time to time.

The change from FLTK 1.3.X to 1.4.X breaks many things in Dillo. One of my priorities is to get it fixed ASAP but it will take a while. I'll probably ship experimental support for FLTK 1.4.X under a configure flag in the next 3.3.0 release so I don't delay it for too long.

Excellent -- thanks for replying!
