The latest cutting-edge build of the SeaMonkey Internet Suite (2.0a2pre)

Includes a brand new theme,an IRC/chat client,Firefox 3.0 extension compatibility,plugin manager,*fast* page rendering,full page zoom (with images) and much more.

The best part is that it doesn't overwrite your old SeaMonkey installation files or profiles,so you can use both and decide which one to keep.

Complete package with all the dependencies.

After installation,you can run it from the 'Network' Menu or just by opening the console and typing 'woof' (without the quotes)

DOWNLOAD

Happy browsing.

Recommended addons:

- CatThief's 'Mostly Crystal' theme for SeaMonkey 2.0 beta (the most beautiful Linux inspired theme)
- NoScript (to block Flash,Silverlight and other bandwidth/CPU-consuming ads)
- Adobe Flash 10

-----------------------------------
There's no need for the 'fox when you've got the 'monkey :)

:) Nice
Thanks.

I created an icon on the desktop
with the following

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
woof
(just go to home
right click and select create new script - add text and drag to desktop)

Then I went to preferences and changed the mouse wheel option to zoom
That I like A LOT but of course I lose the wheel mouse scrolling :?

BBC and Youtube working without need to install flash add on - am using 4.1.1

If it remains stable, will continue using :)
Thanks for creating pet, panzerpuppy

update

went to a flash site it did not like
stopped working
got this:

Code: Select all

# woof

/root/seamonkey/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 16995 Segmentation fault      "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
#
So that is about 1 hours usage before instability takes over
ah well . . .

I like the new look a lot, As Seamonkey goes, if they keep it up. I might just replace Firefox, hmmm I did say Firefox not FirePup :wink:

Lobster it could be the way its compiled with Gnome, it should of been disabled for puppy. also it was compiled for RedHat.

A far as I understand the future, SeaMonkey and the separate products will grow to kinda same coding, so there is more compatibility for extension, functionality.

Is there a more stable release of the updated Seamonkey?

It would be good if the PET asked if the default install of Seamonkey should or should not be replaced - in my case I would like to replace it to save space and to avoid confusion ... mine ... down the road.

CatDude has provided me a way to keep my "preferences" external to Seamonkey so that I can change versions and even machines and move only the pieces I need.
