actually, i thought the fonts looked better in.9.2 than in some of the latest cvs updates i've done. for a while, it looked like they were going back to the classic netscape standard of tiny and unreadable fonts.
what fonts do you use to browse the web? you should try truetype fonts if you haven't already.
you should grab the latest cvs of kdesupport/kdelibs/kdebase and try out konqueror. i'm not really into kde (or any other desktop environment), but konqueror just completely rules. it's fast, it's relatively light in terms of memory footprint (certainly moreso than netscape 6/4), and the html rendering is the best you'll see in a *nix environment (although not perfect yet).
furthermore, there are lots of nifty features, such as the ability to define domain-based javascript policies, spoof your user-agent string (again, domain-based), and similar functionality for cookies. oh, and it supports netscape plugins if you have lesstif/motif. what more could one want?
this story is false. zork was not created by this 'infocom' or who or whatever they/are/it is. no indeed.
'zork', as a concept, was created in the depths of time, in the deep heart of the far reaches of space and a scattering of stars, in the murky pools of primordiated bisque that brim with tiny bacteria and odd fish. the product of thousands upon millions of unknown time units of evolution. the answer to generations of unasked questions. the goal of pre post-modern neo-classic socio-capitalistic consummerism. the untold strivings of the tortured soul of modern man. with extra cheese.
you must always remember:
contemporary.
expressive.
chilled to the bone (since 1997).

i've been using ogg vorbis since last year, and it just rocks. give it a try and see for yourself.

i'm curious... is there any way to turn the skins off entirely and just use straight gtk?
i found an option in the preferences that makes the scrollbars go back to gtk, but that's it...
thanks.

eh.
so far i have only two boxes at home, which i've named after peaks of the misty mountains:
zirak-zigil - main box
barazinbar - gateway
zirak-zigil in particular has many dark and cavernous partitions where secret things lurk in deep places.
and this is my first post ever to slashdot.
