Well, I'd like to push the development of Kmeleon a bit forward, as Christiophe, the original author doesn't seem to have a lot of time for further development.
The source code is in the sourceforge CVS and can be checked out. Unfortunately Sourceforge has some permission problems and I don't have write access, so I can't currently commit any changes. A list of things that could be done follows:
Bugs (in descending priority)
====
- Allow configuration of *all* ctrl-<char> combinations for commands
(e.g. ctrl-n for open in new window)
FIX AVAILABLE: Edit kmeleon.rc to have ID_FILE_NEWWINDOW instead of
ID_FILE_NEW as accelerator id
- Closing "master" window, closes the whole app
- Allow basic authentication
(?
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59981 or 61669) (we seem to have one patch for this one)
- Allow ctrl-c, ctrl-v, ctrl-x in textfields
- navigating with forward/back before the site finished loading loads to wrong display
(2 pages on top of each other)
- Links in the >> drop down menu don't work (in the link toolbar)
- Uninstall fails with message: "An error occurred while trying to uninstall k-meleon
(remove only). It may have already been uninstalled."
- Wheelmouse scrolling often goes forward/back in history
- not all Favorites are 'imported' by K-Meleon
(implimentation is case-sensitive, i.e. Shortcuts with '.URL' opposed to '.url' won't work)
- percentage of document loaded sometimes wrong (>100%)
Mozillas responsibility:
- Fix keyboard navigation in textfields (important!)
- Several Kmeleon0.21 crashes which are already fixed in the nightlies
Features (in more or less descending priority)
========
- Provide uninstall.exe (trivial), because people are constantly complaining
(which annoys *me* and makes it high priority :-)
- ability to download files
- Add view source menu entry to show the html source
(in system specific application for .txt files)
- Hook up mailto:, telnet: and ftp: URIs to use the system specific
applications for these URIs
- using system specific MIME applications for files
- Open local files doesn't work on some systems
- UI to edit proxy config
- Allow printing
- save images
- manage bookmarks (delete, add, reorganize)
- cookie support
- hotkey to put the focus in the address bar and highlight the current URL
(so you can type in a new one)
- right click and keyboard shortcut option for "open link in background"
(open new window not on top)
- Start URL via command line
- Full screen kiosk mode
- Add greek & russion character sets?
- hebrew support
(a menu, where you have to specify the fonts you want or something will be enough?!)
Mozillas(?) responsibility:
- Add Flash support (or more general: mozilla plugin support)
