The converted font is a RISC OS font and it goes inside any !Fonts
application, mine went into !Boot.Resources.!Fonts
The awkward bit on the Iyonix is updating the Messages1 file. A new font
not referred to in that file will not be available for use. I used
!ScanFonts from Select which works with Aemulor. Otherwise the new font
could be extracted, put into a dummy !Fonts and then installed via the
Fonts configuration.

It will if there is no Messages1 file, what does not work is a Messages1
file that does not contain the new font. The Messages1 file tells the
FontManager what is available, if it is not present then it has to work
it out for itself. Messages1 is quicker which may not matter much unless
there are a lot of fonts.

I can replicate the "running out of memory" error with the above
fragment on my 128M Iyonix. NetSurf claims all the available memory as
its Dynamic area, eg. 79456K.

[Netsurf-develop] Flickering streaks on pinboard
by Keith Hopper
Greetings,
18 April 2045 build, Iyonix 5.08
I have just been looking up some obscure words in the OED on-line and,
while pages were being awaited, there have been narrow horizontal streaks
flickering for a fraction of a second about one quarter way up the
left-hand side of the Netsurf window - from that edge to the left edge of
the display. The flickering streak appears and disappears very rapidly -
but not regularly - some 1 to 3/4 seconds between flickers.
This flickering does not appear in conjunction with other phases of
document retrieval/rendering, nor in conjunction with any other
application. There are a humungous number of content_destroy and
contetn-remove_user calls in the stderr file - but nothing else apart from
cache interaction reports.

[Netsurf-develop] Strange truncation
by Brian Jordan
RISC OS Adjust 4.39
Virtual RPC Adjust
NetSurf test Build (18 April 2005 12:00)
On two of my sites NetSurf appears to truncate some content. It may well
do it on other sites as well but as I don't know what the should say, I
can't be sure.
At the foot of www.clubmans.org.uk/ there is a link starting "This site
is designed..." only the word "site" is truncated to "sit". The link
continues to work and <F8> shows that the source has not been corrupted.
On www.btinternet.com/~brian.jordan9/quiz/index.htm/ some numbers >1000
in the "Match (F)" column of the second table have lost their last digit.
Again the downloaded sorce contins all of the data.
Can anyone else confirm this? I know the HTML isn't very elegant but it
works on Ovation 2 and Firefox here.

It did this before. I'm not entirely sure why it was changed, tbh

I'm not entirely convinced that's even needed in UnixLib (as our errno.h
already defines EILSEQ). I only included in the original stubs as the SCL
headers supplied with Norcroft don't define it.

[Netsurf-develop] Incorrect Header Check
by Keith Hopper
Hi,
It seems that the 12 April 19:15 build of Netsurf objects to all
documents which I have attempted to retrieve from
http://www.linuxsecurity.com
I attach the stderr file - the error message appears on line 37/8
I must admit I have never come across an 'encoding - gzip' before -
but I presume it was encoded that way because Netsurf seemed prepared to
accept it!
Over to you,
Keith
