Hello

I'm a french newbee. I tryed to change dillo's home page putting google.fr but nothing happened. Why ??

Code: Select all

----------------------------------------------------------
#                            NETWORK SECTION

# Set the home location
# home="file:/home/jcid/HomePage/Home.html"
#home="http://www.dillo.org/"

# Set the URLs used by the web search dialog.
#"%s" is replaced with the search keywords separated by '+'.
# Format: search_url="[prefix ][<label> ]<url>"
# You can enable multiple search_url strings at once and select from among
# them at runtime, with the first being the default.

Code: Select all

 # start_page="http://www.google.fr" 
the line starts with a # which means dillo does not read it.
Just remove the # and it should work.

...I hope

Seems you edited the global configuration file – which get's overriden by your personal configuration file. So edit the (hidden) file ~/.dillo/dillorc (short for /home/YOUR_USERNAME/.dillo/dillorc) instead. If it doesn't show up in your file manager toggle the view of hidden files by applying the key shortcut Ctrl h.

For customizations you generally should use the personal config files in your home directory, many of them in the hidden folder ~/.config.

~ is your home folder. IF you aren't in your home folder in the terminal already, you can use

cd ~

To return to it.
