“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV) -
I don't know. I've had three versions of it (2.0c; 98 and X) and I haven't been truly happy with any of them. I mean, they work and are reasonably stable (98 was the best), but they have **** unicode support and if you are trying to type in Greek that means silly workarounds and ****ing around with incompatible fonts. When all word processors finally have proper unicode support my life will be much easier.Originally posted by Imran Siddiqui

I don't know If I can be bothered forking out another fortune for another version of Office. I'm thinking of using LaTEX instead.
Having said that, I have yet to try Firefox....
....well that's an improvement, the unicode support for polytonic Greek actually works on Perseus. All the characters and accents are correct, which is unbelievable.
Unfortunately the display quality of the font is lousy compared to Safari and Omniweb, so I guess it's them for Greek.Only feebs vote.Comment

Yep Firefox is great, but somehow its not okay that it takes up to 40MB of RAM.
Browse for a while with multiple tabs and so on.
Anyway stock Firefox is clearly superior to stock IE as IE doesnt come with popup blocker or tabbed browsing.
The google toolbar makes IE somewhat more userfriendly but then Firefox got a lot of extensions like mouse gestures which work like a charm!
I have switched to Mozilla since 0.7 came out.Comment

Can I change the position of the tabs?
I want them at the bottom of the page, not at the top =\Comment

Also:
- where is my scroll-bar?
- why can't I make links be opened in tabs rather than windows?Comment

Zopperoni: Install the Tab Browser Extension, they do everything you've asked for.
Holding CTRL will open links in tabs, but to make this the default behavior you need TBE."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

What are mouse gestures?
Something like what you did in black & white?????Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

Exactly. Except that it's much more simple in Opera, since there are less operations to be performed: hold down the mouse button and move the mouve down: you have just opened a new tab

I have only three gestures which I use all the time these are:
a drag to the left: back
a drag to the right: forward
a drag up: reload frame
and I also use the right mouse button.
I like to see the red tail. Gives me some visual feedback.Comment

That's what I do (I use Mozilla, only used Opera once). But mouse gestures are more convenient and faster that wasting time clicking on the on-screen button, or the right keyboard combination. It's very convenient.Originally posted by Urban Ranger

Good lord this is incredible!Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment
