Min browser is really fast !
I exported my google-chrome bookmarks to a html file and then use this html file as the opening page of Min browser. When i want to open a link, i open it in a new tab.
Does anyone know how to set a default(global) zoom ratio so that each new tab opened be default to 200% ?
BTW, is Wavebox and Min browser the same developer ? Wavebox can also display webpages but with netvigation button. But Wavebox's adblock function seems to be weak when surfing webpages.

Dont know of a zoom answer but configs are in /root/.config/min... you might find something there or try posting or searching on the github support forum for min.
There is also a resources folder in the min folder...it needs it to run but some of it I am guessing is only for compiling. You might find something there.
Not a beastie I fancy compiling.... mins code is simple but the browser engine is huge. The dev does say feel free to customise in the spirit of open source.

ps slightly off topic but the new dropbox apis create a link for EVERY parent folder of a file and post them in random order along with the wanted link which was the source of my previous faulty posts.... apologies for any confusion caused...my web script is now fixed.

This is being a great stubborn site browser to have on standby.
Only thing is, is there a way to prevent caching...it soon build up though the contents can be deleted while keeping bookmarks and settings?
Also the build I have is different to the one from the min website...who build it...seems like debian squeeze or similar was the target...

Archwiki's Chromium website gives a startup command to place Cache in /tmp/cache but it didn't seem to work in Min. So I moved /root/.config/Min/Cache to /tmp/Cache and then symlinked back to /root/.config/Min/Cache. Seems to work OK.mikeb wrote:This is being a great stubborn site browser to have on standby.

I've created a startup script, /usr/bin/min
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
mkdir /tmp/Cache > /dev/null 2>&1
rm -fr /root/.config/Min/Cache
ln -s /tmp/Cache /root/.config/Min/Cache > /dev/null 2>&1
/opt/min/min
Cheers, J
Okies.... or otherwise I considered a miniscript to delete contents of cache and the other database that fills up at shutdown (or no save for my pups).
Thanks for the info....I am unfamiliar with chrome's hidden settings and it seems generally cache is one thing they don't like users disabling for some reason so wondered if there was some option hidden away,

@ orrin:-
Just out of curiosity, where does pFind show your gtk-3.0 to be installed? Is it in /usr/lib64, or /usr/lib? For Slacko 64 6.3.2, it should in be /usr/lib64; the Slackos don't use the sym-link to /usr/lib that the 'buntu-based Pups have.
I have a feeling you'll also need gdk-3.0, as well..... Y'know, just out of curiosity, have you tried any of my current Chrome packages recently? All the libs & stuff required by Chrome are within a sub-directory inside /chrome; all self-contained nowadays.....

I prefer not to use Chrome! I do not like Google watching everything I do.Mike Walsh wrote:@ orrin:-

I really like Slimjet... are you going to make an SFS of that with all the
contained libs? I'm running the Slimjet based on Chrome 59.

I'am wrting this message from the deb min from their github on uppupcc 18.10 :

When I use Chrome and view a Murga forum post I can right click on the icon at the top of a post and save the link (to identify the exact specific post).
However when I do this in Min it only gives me the address of the icon - not the unique address of the post.
Any suggestions how I can identify the unique url of a specific post using Min?

Not a Min user but your problem looks like
a.) The browser cannot/doesnot use a 'gif' as a link
b.) Following that, can it link using jpg or png?, text-link only?
May be a setting in the browser to adjust this.

The strange thing is - it can link from the gif ok (clicking it takes me to a specific post). Min obviously knows what the link is pointing too, but just won't tell me what that is when I rightclick it.
Just an oversight i guess.
Another related question though: where does Min display the url of the page you are currently viewing? Sometimes I want to be able to copy that url and view it in another browser or save it to a document - but how?

Looks like min has become 64-bit only on Linux from version 1.10.0
1.9.2 is last i386 version
