Mosaic To Do List
This is a general, long-term to-do list.
For future releases
- Installer script.
- Transparent backgrounds for GIF.
- Give binary transfers a default save filename.
- Fix iconification enforcer hits (MUI/Boopsi interaction problem).
- Use DataTypes for audio (first need a .au datatype from djunod).
- SPACE to go to next page, BACKSPACE to go to previous page (not document!).
- Prefs options for pen colors, global history, etc.
- Telnet mode telnet:insti.physics.sunysb.edu should be made to work - is rlogin with napsaterm acceptable?
- Serial link performance
Permanent image cache (on HD) [http2 expires
info used], and control over number and size of inlined objects to load (threshold for confirmation).
- Kiosk version of Mosaic, with parts of GUI disabled, for presentation and kiosk use.
- Save Preferences menu item.
- Busy pointers when appropriate.
- Copy URL/Document to clipboard.
- Implement "Find in current..."?
- New interrupt button (boopsi rotating image).
- Look for memory leaks (and use pools to prevent them persisting).
- Convert GUI code closer to NCSA code.
- Mail to developers menu-item (assuming that smtphost setup etc).
- Little Icon next to transfer bar to indicate inlined or not transfer
- Use fast mem instead of chip mem for inlined image caching. According
to Commodore, DataTypes won't let us do this.
- Localization - including sending language prefs to http2 servers, so you get documents in the right language if they exist, and localising the amiga httpd port so that it respects these preferences - see docs here.
- Allow text selection and copy to clipboard.
- DNET version.
- Implement a hotlist.
- Implement Forms.
- Switch HTML gadget from Boopsi class to MUI class?
- Pen problem in public screens. What to do? See
here for more info on this problem.
- Finish updating gui source to XMosaic 2.1 code.
