Hello,
K-meleon is just wonderful on my old laptop, but i have a small problem. I can't find anything even remotely looking like a Downloads option in the menu. You know, the one where you see the history of all your downloads, can redownload files, etc.
Any help is welcome

Because there isn't a "Downloads history".

You'll need to use the normal History and search for the file.

It's not a big deal. If for example you downloaded a 7z file, it's enough to type 7z in the search, or, to be more accurate, .7z.

Thank you very much!

There IS one, John!

just type about:downloads in URLbar and go there!

There are no menu item for now though. But everyone can create the bookmark.

Actually I don't know at what level Dorian has implemented these things.

Good to know, rodocop.


EDIT:

Probably I scared out Scyther

In the other hand, this shouldn't be hidden :/

Perhaps this macro can be of use to "unhide" the command.

downloads.kmm

#  K-Meleon Macros (http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?id=MacroLanguage2)

_downloads_History {

&OpenURL_InNew;

_downloads_BuildMenu {

	if ($VERSION >= 33619974 ) {
       setmenu("&View",macro,"Downloads","_downloads_History",kFullscreen);
       setmenu("&View",separator,Downloads);
    }
}

Cannot understand why, but your kmm causes my RC2 to get buggy - it crashes after opening new window for downloads and also some functions stop working (like go to home page)

Are you working without tabs? I did not try with 'notab'. I just opened the home page and then came back to make this post. So far, I have had no problem. I also just switched focus to 'Downloads' tab and back here.

How long after viewing Downloads before your problem appears?

Adding kmm-file errorizes my KM by itself.

I've tried to rename it (and all functions inside), change code opening dl-page - nothing helps!

But removing file or switching macro off in Preferences - both lead to correct work being back.

A sort of magic! (My system is WinXPSP3)

UPD.: Sorry, James - it seems like particular problem of my OS! Testing on the other PC gives no errors! All works fine!

For my excuse I've created kmm-file and the corresponding thread in Extensions with attachment!

It does not work well, that's why I didn't add it.

OK, I understand now. Someone suggested that it be under Tools with CTRL+J added, but I did not know it was supposed to be anything other than a list. That is why I put it under View.

I don't plan any more work on it.

What was the problem with downloads? Is that about handling unknown content types? (That was the only glitch I had while testing by myself).

If yes, the reason may be the lack of 2 dtd-files in en-US locale:
unknownContentType.dtd
unknownContentType.properties
in the km working omni.ja

normally present in mozapps from big omni.ja.
