Re: FF 3.5x performance + Once Ya' go to FF 'n' TB

2009-11-16 Thread JR WG
RE:  I don't care if the components of the suite run as separate 
processes / applications.  In fact that's the only nice thing about 
the Tb/Fb combo - when a page in the browser is running a heavy 
Flash applet it doesn't freeze the other components, e.g. the Mail. 
 
Actually, Firefox 3.5x is mono-threaded in a few places, where it WILL stall 
and stop / almost stop many other processes while those inner threads are 
operating, thus now and then (not constantly) slowing any PC OS down -- Win, 
Mac, Linux -- it is these very few internal FF areas that do NOT compare as 
favorably as FF 3.5x could when compared to exact-same tests against Google's 
Chrome and the very few other Gecko and other related-or-not  browser engines.
 
It appears that FF 3.5x tabs are multi-threaded for performance, but the 
entirety of FF 3.5x is NOT TOTALLY as high-performance as many of us thought it 
could or would be.

However, it appears that these deficiencies will be addressed in the upcoming 
FF 3.6, but we must wait to be certain of that. Also, it appears that once 
Thunderbird 3 finally appears, parts of FF 3.5x, and possibly even SeaMonkey 2, 
will operate better when called upon to I/O data and background information 
with TBird 3.

Not to take anything away from the mostly fine points of SM 2, but SM 2 has a 
little ways to go, hopefully mostly ironing out what we all hope would be less 
than major problem points for the overworked SM programmer.

 I prefer suite products since I always use e-mails and Web browser when
 using the Internet.

I prefer the suite as it is sharing my settings and preferences 
among its components - I don't want to maintain and synchronize the 
same settings among different applications the suite has as 
components.  That's enough for me to stick with the suite, but I 
also like the more verbose SeaMonkey UI loaded with some features I 
miss from Firefox - the Forms tab in the Page Info removed in 
Firefox 3, for example.

I don't care if the components of the suite run as separate 
processes / applications.  In fact that's the only nice thing about 
the Tb/Fb combo - when a page in the browser is running a heavy 
Flash applet it doesn't freeze the other components, e.g. the Mail. 
  Previously this could have been solved by the profile sharing 
proposal https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mozilla2:Profile_Sharing but it 
has been dropped and I'm looking forward the implementation of 
content processes https://wiki.mozilla.org/Content_Processes 
which would make the suite better than the Tb/Fb combo, I think.

The SM 2.0 installer should check the size of the existing profile and

Robert, are you saying that you had over 3GB of mail in the one profile?

SM 2.0 only imports one profile, the default profile, into the new 
version, so if your 3GB was spread over several profiles, you still have 
some migrating to do.

Actually the default theme has been vastly changed to as what can best 
be described as Playschool eye candy, and if you using the Mac version 
the Grippies functions have been removed because supposedly it went 
against some edict from apple as to how the GUI should look like.


Check with https://www.projectit.com/. he has some seriously great

One great looking Theme is SkyPilot. if you don't mind Quote Colors not

I actually need to use an older version of Seamonkey (for research
purposes).
I am a PhD student doing research in debugging techniques. I am using
older versions of the
code with known bugs, so that I can study those bugs.
The version that I am currently trying to build with static is from
Oct 1 2008. I did not think that this is that old ...

An alternative for me would be to use a new code version and try to
re-
introduce the bug from Oct 1 2008, however
this is not a good approach, since much may have changed since then.

You mean, that you cannot see a false configuration. Sorry for

But there is also the possibility that you have not been clear enough. *eg*

|I have Fails for me about 2:1 over Works for me, but obviously it

This belongs to eternal? 2 fails for 1 succeed? Or do you mean 2 other
newssevers are working correct and eternal fails?

I mean about twice as many people have said they had the problem as have said it 
worked. Counting posts to SM groups, posts to e-s support, mail to me, firums, 
and chat (IRC) discussion. About 8 to 4 in favor of having a problem, and at 
least one who didn't was accessing without authentication, not the same thing.


This also fails on another, private, server which allows minimal access without 
authentication, full access with.



But clearly you have problems with eternal despite of seemingly correct
settings. Here is what i would do in this case.

First identify the account which belongs to eternal by searching in the
prefs.js for eternal. In my case this would be mail.server.server4. Then
remove the account for eternal with Edit-Mail  Newsgroups Account
Settings-Remove Account.

Close SM and delete all traces of eternal in the profile. Especially the
folder News/news.eternal-september.org and the files
News/news.eternal-september.org.msf and
News/newsrc-news.eternal-september.org. Look into prefs.js, if all
references to server? are gone.

Start SM, open the Password Manager, select 'Manage Stored Passwords'
and delete the entries for eternal if existent.

Then create a new account for eternal.

Before I go through all that, why would that give better results than installing 
Linux on a new machine, installing SeaMonkey, creating a new normal user account 
(had to do all that anyway), then creating an e-s account.


As noted in several posts, I looked for a conversion issue from 1.1.18, then 
tried a new account creation, then new account in new profile, then news account 
in whole new user account, finally tried on a clean install on new hardware, 
which I was doing anyway.


Unless there's some reason to think that creating, deleting, and re-creating 
will be different, I'll pass. I know there's no old stuff in tests starting with 
new hardware and build up all new software installs.

Jens Hatlak wrote:

Arnie Goetchius wrote:

The procedure for composing in HTML for a single message (as opposed to
all messages) appears to have changed from 1.1.x. However, the 2.0 Help
file still refers to 1.1.x procedures as follows:

If while composing a message you realize that one or more recipients
may not be able to receive HTML-formatted mail, you can easily convert
the message to a different format when you click Send:

1. In the Compose window, open the Options menu and choose Format.
2. Select the format you want to use for sending the message from the
submenu:

===snipped

That procedure no longer applies to 2.0 as there is no Format in the
Options menu in 2.0.


Wrong. The part you quoted from Help refers to the case where you are 
composing an HTML mail. In that case there *is* a Format option under 
Options and it allows you to change the format of the outgoing mail. It 
has been like that in SM 1.0, SM 1.1 and it is still like that in SM 2.0.


Yes, that misfeature is still with us. People who start in HTML are allowed to 
change, people who get started in text get to start all over, the option to 
correct the format is not offered in text mode, and sending in text mode to 
someone marked as wants HTML doesn't get a useful box to pop up and let you 
decide.



To compose in HTML for a single message, click on
the down arrow to the right of the Compose icon. There you will be given
the option of composing the current message in plain text or HTML


Correct, this option is new. However, it does not replace the other 
option, it is just a new alternative.

On sites with multiple login you only have to double click in the

Testing indicates that neither double click nor click and down arrow work on 
some sites, you have to remember the value and type a few letters before you get 
anything. Kind of worthless when password manager was going to remember what 
login you made up for that site. People who use the same login for everything

The initial import into the Mercurial repository (comm-central) was on

Anyway I guess that doesn't change the fact that your compile fails. You

Re: [HOW-TO] Import Passwords from Firefox/Thunderbird to SM 2.0

2009-11-16 Thread Bill Davidsen

Philip Chee wrote:

http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=40t=1588545

Importing Passwords from Firefox and Thunderbird the easy way.

1. In Firefox/Thunderbird, install Password Exporter 1.2 from:
http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/modifiedmisc.html#passwordexporter
2. Export your passwords to a XML file.

3. In SeaMonkey 2.0, install Password Exporter 1.2.
4. Import your passwords from the XML file generated in Step 2.

http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/modifiedmisc.html#passwordexporter
--==--
Password Exporter is an extension for Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird
that allows you to export and import your saved passwords and disabled
login hosts from Password Manager. The logins will be exported to an XML
(Extensible Markup Language) or CSV (Comma Separated Values) file and
can then be imported into another application or computer that has
Password Exporter installed.

Where to find it:
Firefox Options/Preferences - Security pane - Import/Export Passwords
button.
OR
SeaMonkey - Edit - Preferences - Privacy amp; Security pane -
Passwords - Import/Export Passwords button.
OR
Add-ons Manager - Preferences/Options for the extension.
--==--

And may I add that having the do something trigger hidden under preferences is 
about as counter-intuitive as anything I've ever seen. I found the one in 
Add-ons Manager by trying to find somewhere in preferences to set the location 
of the do something button. This would be vastly easier to find if there was 
an import/export menu item in password manager, like bookmarks. Or even on the 
pane for the feature in Add-ons manager.


It's about as intuitive as putting the apply brakes control in a car as a 
subfunction of dashboard lighting brightness. Do something useful is not a 
preference.

You don't mention what operating system you're using, so I'm assuming
Windows.

It is possible that you had SeaMonkey 1.1.X running with Quick Launch
enabled? If so then SeaMonkey 1.1.X may be running all the time. With
that, when you attempt to launch SeaMonkey 2.0, it will see that there
is a SeaMonkey already running and just open a new window from that.

Try shutting down SeaMonkey, including the quick launch, then verify
there is no seamonkey mentioned in the task manager under the Processes
tab (make sure you 'show processes from all users', if available).

Once they're all gone, try launching SeaMonkey 2.0 and see what happens.

If this is the issue, note that without some extra effort, you can't
run both versions at the same time. If you want to migrate to 2.0,
you'll want to disable the Quick Launch feature in the 1.1 version, so
it won't keep starting SeaMonkey 1.1 when you boot/log-in to your machine.

desktop, whereas SM 2.0 puts them under 'All Users'.


So now back to my original problem...

SM 2.0: No Home Button on Personal Toolbar

2009-11-16 Thread Sqwertz
The proposed solution to this seems to be that you're supposed to 
customize the tool bar, using the button from your personal toolbar.


Well, I don't have a home button on my personal toolbar.  Probably because 
I turned it off when I installed Home Button on SM 1.1.x.  And when I 
imported my settings from 1.1 the absence of the home button went with it.


I don't know why the concept of having a prominently displayed Home button 
is a foreign concept to the Mozilla folks.  It kind reminds me having to 
re-map the [backspace] key work every time you installed Emacs: Something 
irritating you have to do immediately after every install and before you 
can do anything else.


Do people really not use a Home button?  I'm pretty sure that if you put 
it right up there on the navigation toolbar by default, only an 
insignificant number of users would complain about not being able to 
disable it (the same number of people who would like to disable the Back 
button).

 Please re-read the summary (title) of bug 425145:

 Since the bug is not fixed, doesn't that clearly imply that the pref

Must be a Windows Bug , Because clicking on hide tab bar if only one 
page open does hide the tab Bar. But then you have to also click Link 
open behavior in new window, and links for other applications in New 
windows. But even then on rare occasions even if you set to windows 
rather than tabs something will open in a Tab. when they do that I 
immediately quit that link.  One place that this happens is when you 
install a new version of SM, FF  it will always open the You have just 
load the latest version ... Page in a new tab. despite having set for 
use existing window.


Its as if they are trying to say ... look what tabs look like you bunch 
of dummies that use windows. Its always been this way since the first

The procedure for composing in HTML for a single message (as opposed to

If while composing a message you realize that one or more recipients
may not be able to receive HTML-formatted mail, you can easily convert
the message to a different format when you click Send:

1. In the Compose window, open the Options menu and choose Format.
2. Select the format you want to use for sending the message from the
submenu:

That procedure no longer applies to 2.0 as there is no Format in the
Options menu in 2.0.


Wrong. The part you quoted from Help refers to the case where you are
composing an HTML mail. In that case there *is* a Format option under
Options and it allows you to change the format of the outgoing mail. It
has been like that in SM 1.0, SM 1.1 and it is still like that in SM 2.0.


Yes, that misfeature is still with us. People who start in HTML are allowed to
change, people who get started in text get to start all over, the option to
correct the format is not offered in text mode, and sending in text mode to
someone marked as wants HTML doesn't get a useful box to pop up and let you
decide.


To compose in HTML for a single message, click on
the down arrow to the right of the Compose icon. There you will be given
the option of composing the current message in plain text or HTML


Correct, this option is new. However, it does not replace the other
option, it is just a new alternative.

Greetings,

Jens






The way its setup now in SM2 if you have set to Plain Text in a 
newsgroup you can only post in Plain Text.


If you set for HTML you can post either in HTML or Plaintext you'd 
switch just by holding Shift key down (Mac) to swap to other format.


In Email you swap one to the other regardless of which format you in.

I suspect because most people here hate worth a passion HTML it was 
built in not to be able to toggle to HTM if set to Plain text.

Just try the following.  No, you don't have to leave it that way.

On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [View  Show/Hide  Personal Toolbar].
 Then on the Navigation toolbar, right-click on an active button or on
the SeaMonkey throbber icon; and then select Customize from the
pull-down context menu.

Do you see a house icon either on the Personal toolbar or in the
Customize Toolbar window?  Is so, you can drag it onto the Navigation
toolbar and drop it wherever you want it there.  Then select the Done
button on the Customize Toolbar window.  Return to the menu bar and
again select [View  Show/Hide  Personal Toolbar] to hide the Personal
Toolbar.

Note:  You cannot drag and drop a button unless the Customize Toolbar
window is open.

As for me, I also don't use the Personal toolbar.  I do use the PrefBar
extension and have a Home button its toolbar.  However, after
researching your question, I might move the Home button from the
Personal toolbar to the Navigation bar, which has much more room than
the PrefBar toolbar.

Several times now while reading a email message in SM 2.0 either the 
message display pane or the pane where read and unread messages are 
listed and on some occasions both places just go blank. To correct this 
I have to either click on another message then go back to the one I was 
reading or click on another subfolder in the account folder pane then 
back to that folder. If that made any sense could someone tell me what 
causes it and how to stop it from happening or is this just the nature 
of the email client of 2.0? I can tell by the sound my hard drive is

must be from inside SM because most of the time I don't have anything

Same settings I have Here . Just maybe it is a Windows 7 thing? I
never
saw any Tabs since Netscape 1.1 until Mozilla 2.0. And Yes I still
have
the 1.44 Floppy that contained 1.1 setup.



Netscape had tabbed browsing starting with 6.0, and continued to the
end
with 9.

Mozilla Suite had tabbed browsing from the beginning. 1.0 had it,
as dd
every other version released, There was never a Mozilla 2.0, so I am
not sure where you are coming from on that one.

If you are talking about Firefox 2.0. well Firefox has also had tabbed
browsing since its inception as Phoenix.

The simplest answer is just don't use them. Maybe you could post an
example of when a tab opens when you don't want it to, so we can
advise
you as to how to avoid it.

Agreed. I've tried 2.0 and have found it generally an improvement over 1.x,
but I don't like the new download progress dialog. Specifically, I miss
1.x's large buttons and, more critically, the ability to easily copy the
local path of a download (bug 474640) so I can paste it to another
application or to a command line. I still can't figure out a way to do the
latter in 2.0, even from the Download Manager.

Until something is done about this, I'm going to continue using 1.1.18 as
my primary browser.

I find it very useful as I have Lightning's calendar loaded and if I
choose to invoke it I can toggle between my mail or my calendar and in
my browser I never open a new window just a new tab, much handier in MY
opinion. We all have our preferences, there is a lot of things I use and
many I do not but I do not insist that those I do not use be taken out
just because I do not use them.

You can copy the path of the download from the download progress dialog
*and* the download manager - just right-click the link being downloaded
and select 'Copy Download Link'.

I do it all the time to copy  paste the link to gwget where I can
control the download rate. I start the download, copy the link, stop the
SM download as it has no rate/bandwidth control, and instead use gwget.

Here is a sample of a link that was copied from the download manager
(download was complete):
http://ftp.df.lth.se/mozilla/seamonkey/releases/2.0/linux-i686/en-US/seamonkey-2.0.tar.bz2

IMO 474640 should be closed as 'resolved'.

Regarding the size of the buttons; very much agree. There was a dission
over on the mozilla.support.seamonkey group prior to the release of SM
2.0. Maybe they'll be adjusted in 2.0.x.

Yes there is a tab bar, but only one tab is open.  From here, if I 
choose to hide the tab bar when only one tab is open, Mail/News honors 
that, so if tabs are not being used, it should not display.


See other messages for possible uses of tabs in Mail/News.  Actually, 
this has been a much asked for feature, and has great possibilities.

Yes it does, it is the Default after all.  ;) It seems to be the default 
on Windows and Linux, as well as OS X.  The default theme is geared to 
the OS, and looks rather different depending on the OS, but it is the 
default.


Modern Theme is available. You might check Saifish's site for some others:

http://www.projectit.com/

From communicating with Pat, Simple Green and Cold Fusion are not going 
to be ported to SeaMonkey. They are based on browser only versions of 
Netscape, and cannot be ported easily to the suite.  However, there are 
several other options, Sky Pilot, and Modern Mozillium as a couple of 
examples.


I have become very fond of the Venerable Modern theme.  I also hove a 
fondness for KaiRo's Star Trek theme, though I admit it is a bit of an 
acquired taste.

 Well, I don't have a home button on my personal toolbar.  Probably 
 because I turned it off when I installed Home Button on SM 1.1.x.  And 
 when I imported my settings from 1.1 the absence of the home button went 
 with it.

 I don't know why the concept of having a prominently displayed Home 
 button is a foreign concept to the Mozilla folks.  It kind reminds me 
 having to re-map the [backspace] key work every time you installed 
 Emacs: Something irritating you have to do immediately after every 
 install and before you can do anything else.

 Do people really not use a Home button?  I'm pretty sure that if you put 
 it right up there on the navigation toolbar by default, only an 
 insignificant number of users would complain about not being able to 
 disable it (the same number of people who would like to disable the 
 Back button).

 -sw

 (still wondering why nothing in Windows has the keyboard equivalent of 
 Emacs [Esc-D])
 
 To get the home button try this:
 Edit Preferences Highlight Navigator
 You should now see buttons you want to see in the toolbars.
 Put a check by Home then OK it.

That's for SeaMonkey 1.1.18, not for 2.0.  In 2.0, there is no Navigator
to highlight.  Only the Navigation toolbar has checkboxes, and they're
only for Search and Go.
