Talk:Camino (web browser)

message: Someone should explain and maybe go into a little depth about how this software differs from Firefox for Mac and why some might see those differences as adventagous.  When I stumbled on this page, the first thought that popped into my head was "Firefox works great on Macs, why does Mozilla need to put out something different like this?..."
Camino is a true Mac program, based around Apple's native Cocoa APIs. Firefox is a cross-platform app based around XUL. As a result, Camino feels more like a "native" application than a Windows/Linux port. It integrates better with the system, such as using the Keychain vs. Mozilla's own password storage system, and it, well, looks prettier. There's good info on the MozillaZine forum thread Camino FAQ. perardi 01:59, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I've trimmed the version history sections drastically. I don't think we need to copy the release notes here (which is what it was turning into). If someone feels otherwise, the old sections can be restored from the archived page history.--chris.lawson 02:44, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I have converted inline links to references. I hope this is OK. As I included several references in the content I added, I thought it was best to do it this way. Matt J User|Talk 13:30, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: References

message: To search Wikipedia from the Camino toolbar search, find SearchURLList.plist (normally ~/Library/Application Support/Camino/SearchURLList.plist) and add:
        <key>Wikipedia</key>
        <string>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=%s&go=Go</string>
in the "dict" list.  To make it the default search, remove:
        <key>PreferredSearchEngine</key>
        <string>Google</string>
And replace it with:
        <key>PreferredSearchEngine</key>
        <string>Wikipedia</string>
: Note that versions of Camino since 1.6 no longer support this syntax and, in fact, auto-discover the OpenSearch description offered by Wikipedia. 66.32.241.134 (talk) 04:08, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Searching Wikipedia from Camino

message: :although it does not use native text boxes, which makes Mac OS X services useless.
This phrase is terribly misleading and almost wholly false, and certainly doesn't belong in the lead-in.  
Camino does not use native text fields in the content area, true (chrome text fields are native NSText*); however, that does not mean that text fields in web pages do not support Mac OS X services.  Select some text in this text field and see for yourself that Services are enabled—assuming you are running a version of Camino built since August 2004 :P
(Also note that the next version of Safari will not use native text fields in its content area, either, for the same reasons Camino never has—performance and web page compatibility.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.32.250.91 (talk) 22:41, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I Figured out how to put in other search engines (i put in some of my own), but i cannot figure out how to put wikipedia in there i did what i thought was right but when i went back to Camino all of my search engines were gone except for google and google images can someone show me a wikipedia line of script that worked for them? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.187.35.166 (talk) 00:06, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Camino icon.png

message: If Camino has evolved from Chimera - a small, lightweight webbrowser - is there any way it could be described in terms of its size, say, in bytes?  Just how big of a browser is Camino, anyway?  Is it just a few megs in size?  Or is it perhaps much smaller?  198.177.27.17 (talk) 07:25, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Camino has a comparable size to Firefox (Camino = 42 MB, Firefox = 45 MB). So no, Camino is not really a lightweight browser. Anonymous101 (talk) 07:36, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think that "lightweight" is supposed to refer to file size, necessarily.  I would think (though I haven't really used Firefox in some time) that they're referring to lighter memory usage, fewer extensions, etc. Casey J. Morris (talk) 04:31, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
