Package: galeon
Version: 2.0.2-4
Severity: minor
Click on a URL to a shell script, e.g.:
http://www.madore.org/~david/programs/selfrep/selfrep2.5.sh
...up pops an error message:
It is not possible to view this file directly in the
browser. You can save it instead.
...which makes a simple thing seem impossible. A shell script is text,
and it is possible for the browser to view it. We should be careful to
make a distinction between the file itself, (its data), and its mime
type. Galeon can view the file data, since it's just data -- but
Galeon can't view the data of a file with an unknown mime type.
In comparison, Iceape (~=Mozilla) prints:
The file "selfrep2.5.sh" is of a type text/x-sh, and Iceape does not
how to handle this file type. This file is located at:
http://www.madore.org
What should Iceape do with this file?
{etc.}
...and Iceweasel (~=Firefox) prints:
You have chosen to open
selfrep2.5.sh
which is a: SH file
from: http://www.madore.org
What should Iceweasel do with this file?
{etc.}
Both have better text than Galeon's.
Possible fixes:
1) Print Iceape's message.
2) Call 'file' or some text file checker; if it's a text file
then print the Iceape message, but offer an option to show it
in the browser as plain text.
Hope this helps...
