Less hacking, more bugging.
I've come to a stage where I suspect my gcc4 Firefox builds for Haiku is better than the gcc2 BeOS ones.

Therefore it's time to start to get the changes into CVS. There is still one or two spots where I need to replace shortcuts, but it's pretty much done. I'll try to work on that this weekend.

In the meantime you can always look at this one.

One last thing, does anyone have a clue where Firefox chooses it's GUI-configuration at runtime (colors and such). It isn't using the BeOS defaults even when using gcc2 BeOS-built ones under Haiku.

GUI-configuration at runtime is (supposedly) taken from the system defaults. Definitely is on trunk builds. Last trunk build I did even picked up the double-ended scrollbar widget setting. In the HaikuFox theme, I override all the defaults to get a consistent experience across platforms.

Any chance you might place one of your gcc4 builds in the Bleeding Edge page on BeBits? I'd like to try it.

It is taken from system defaults 'IF' it detects BeOS. What does it do when it detects Haiku. I know that darkblue color when mouse is over a menuitem is out of place at least.

And I can't package it yet. The packaging mechanism don't work right when crosscompuling (I just zip dist to a 164MB zip file). Also you would need a gcc4 build of Haiku, so there arn't that many people who can test, but it is the right kind of people.

I hope 164MB is a typo :( or maybe that includes all the sources and object files also?

it's probably a debug build built with tests included.

Yep, it's 164MB. Although probably only 30MB unpacked is actually used for the app in debug.
