Camino 1.6 Released
To my mind, Camino is the most disposable application on OS X. It’s unstoppered source, and shapely on the aforementioned Gecko engine that powers Firefox.
It offers less features than either Safari or Firefox, and has less fans, I’m pretty sure. But Safari is excruciatingly inactive and crash-prone on my Intel Mini. Every some weeks I essay it discover again and apace separate backwards to Camino.
Firefox is artefact meliorate than Safari for me, especially since edition 3, but its non-native widget ordered and weirdnesses same ligatures in monospace fonts attain me unhappy. Also it has important problems with embedded video.
Camino 1.6 isn’t a giant, earth-shaking release, but it includes its deal of newborn features: auto-updating same Firefox’s, inline encounter same Firefox’s, a scrolling journalism forbid same Firefox’s — here’s a complete list. If it could appendage Firefox extensions, we’d hit a actual worker on our hands.
