surf browser hints
surf
is a simple web browser based on webkit/gtk+, the same web engine that powers Google Chrome. Used with dwm
and dmenu, it's a very powerful, yet simple tool.
Here is a patch to apply X geometry hints to surf
, so that surf
windows behave in dwm.
*** surf.c.orig 2009-08-24 16:41:31.000000000 +0100 --- surf.c 2009-08-24 16:35:02.000000000 +0100 *************** *** 372,377 **** --- 372,381 ---- gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(c->vbox), c->searchbar); gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(c->vbox), c->urlbar); + /* Hints */ + GdkGeometry hints = { 1, 1 }; + gtk_window_set_geometry_hints(GTK_WINDOW(c->win), NULL, &hints, GDK_HINT_MIN_SIZE); + /* Setup */ gtk_box_set_child_packing(GTK_BOX(c->vbox), c->urlbar, FALSE, FALSE, 0, GTK_PACK_START); gtk_box_set_child_packing(GTK_BOX(c->vbox), c->searchbar, FALSE, FALSE, 0, GTK_PACK_START);
Another hint is to create a script to feed surf
with your favorite bookmarks.
Here it is:
#!/bin/sh exe="surf -u `cat ~/.bookmarks | dmenu ${1+"$@"}`" && exec $exe
Enjoy!
