Below you will find patches for latest HG head of *surf* which I am using in my project using integrated Linux station.
(1) surf-1-respect-GNOME-URL-handlers.patch This patch makes *surf* respect URL schema handlers registered in GNOME/Gtk/GConf, when requested url is using other schemas than http: or https:. Since anyway *surf* is Gtk program it was easy to add GConf handling inside to open other program registered on /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/<schema>/command, such as IRC, IMs. (2) surf-2-delete-_SURF_GO-once-received.patch This xprop (atom) may be used to tell *surf* to go to specific URL. It is safer to remove this atom just after it is set in case we send some URL containing passwords or auth tokens such as http://login:mypassw...@myserver.com/ Anyway _SURF_URI will represents current page URL, so keeping _SURF_GO makes no sense. In our case it is matter of safety to not expose this one. (3) surf-3-close-and-reopen-stdout-when-sending-XID.patch When using -x option making *surf* emit its window XID currently it does not close stdout so: SURFXID=`surf -x 2>/dev/null &` will hand forever because no EOF is encountered. So this patch reopens stdout to /dev/null just after sending XID using -x option, so caller process (shell) will receive EOF for stdout and return the control. I hope these small patches gets accepted into HG repo so, we will be able to use *surf* out of the box in our project without need for custom patching. Cheers, -- Adam Strzelecki
