Look in the .dillo folder in your root directory (or home if you don't run as root). There you will see a few plain text files that set up much of how Dillo works.
The important one for us just now is the "dillorc" file. If you read through it in an ordinary text editor you can easily change many of the settings, such as which fonts it uses.
But it doesn't let you change everything. The green background (particularly annoying to me) and the default font can't be changed there. To alter them you need to create another plain text file (in the .dillo folder) called "style.css" which consists of ordinary cascading stylesheet definitions. Here is an example:
Code: Select all
body {background-color: white; font-family: Serif}
body {color: black}
:link {color: blue}
:visited {color: purple}
If you want your color and font settings to override a webpage's definitions (we've all stumbled across pages with dark blue writing on black backgrounds or yellow on white) then append "!important" to your definition. For example:
Code: Select all
body {background-color: white !important; font-family: Serif; color: black !important}
Now Dillo is tiny, fast, and can look more normal too. Yay!
