Free Opera
I know that this is slightly off topic, but Opera is now being given away free. There is a FreeBSD version available there. http://www.opera.com We will now return you to your regularly scheduled forum. -- Gerard E.

It intalled and ran with no problems at all, but I find the fonts ugly in comparison to Firefox and Mozilla. I can't see any reason to switch to it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Does Opera use antialiased fonts too, or not? This could explain why it looks 'less pleasing'... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I assume you guys are talking about the Toolbar fonts. I've used Opera since 5.x and I'm pretty sure there is no Anti-Alias option. The Font options are located under: Tools-Preferences-Advanced On the Left side you'll see a Font Option that allows you to set all the different fonts. -- Rod http://www.opensourcebeef.net ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
