Hi everyone!
The name "surf" of my browser has derived directly from one of the
first proof of concept I wrote. Unfortunally cassmodiah from the
fedora project pointed out, that there are some other projects that
are also named "surf".
- surf.sourceforge.net
- and some other software, which isn't

Surf is indeed the standard name for functions that plot shaded
surfaces in visualisation software (think Matlab).

Of course, this is easy and so on, but this is definitly not a distribution
issue!

This isn't true, there are projects named urxvt and ncmpcpp
But unless you want to end up with such a name for your project,
it is quite hard, I agree.

I totally agree with you and I thank you for this browser.
I follow 5 or so projects on suckless, and like to package up specific
revisions via Gentoo portage; so I wait for updates with bated breath
and all that.
Simply, is there a single rss/atom feed for the entire collection?
It's easy enough to grab the specific ones I want, granted, so mostly

Thanks to Kyle Murphy and dmenu authors for dmenu and the xft patch for
dmenu.
http://lists.suckless.org/dev/0911/2320.html
I'm so proud of myself that I was able to
1) download dmenu from http://tools.suckless.org/dmenu/
2) apply the patch using:
patch -p1 < dmenu-4.0-xft2.diff
and
3) instal

Hehe now if only antialiased fonts didn't look so bad =)
Have you tried Terminus? That's my favorite
constant-width/shell/programming font. Setting up a regular X font is
a little bit painful, but this one is worth the trouble.

Yeah...the regular version is too thin for me. I use 16pt bold for everything.

You think maybe this depends a bit on screen size, screen distance,
resolution, and color scheme?
It seems optimized for smaller screens and resolutions, and I think
those types of fonts works very well on a black background and light
foreground.
