Puppy Browser
Hi looseSCREWorTWO I too liked Seamonkey (with 4.3.1). Seamonkey comes with its own mail program. Since Lupu5 comes with sylpheed mail I decided to just use Puppy Browser html viewer. Works just fine for web browsing. Seems redundant to have two mail programs and two web browsers. Have both 431 and ...

browser cookie and history.
Thanks upnorth for info:
Right now I'm happy with just deleting the cookie and history text files.
Next step would be to see if there is a script available to do that.
Best wishes.

scanner driver
Am trying to use my old scsi scanner:
Acer Prisa Acerscan 620st (Artec) Color flatbed scanner.
Currently running Puppy 431.
Does not seem to have the Artec driver.
Is there an older version of Puppy that would fit the bill?
Thank you and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Abiword bookmarks
Hi,
Using puppy 421 I cannot get the bookmarks function in Abiword 2.6.3 to work.
Does not work in 4.1.2 too.
Has this function been left out in Puppy versions?.

Hi Claude,
Am a newbie to Puppy but I was able to restore my backup usage indicator by going to:
Email/File/Compact folder.
Hope that is what you were looking for.
Edit:
Using 4.1.2 with seamonkey.
