General Software Discussion / any shit browsers I can use?
« on: November 22, 2022, 06:28 AM »
Is there an Internet browser (Windows 10 x64 desktop) that I can use to enter an elderly site that apparently has been abandoned, so it no longer has what it normally takes? The site used to be acceptable some years ago, and now I want to visit it again, but I am prevented by my various browsers. Of course the site may have been invaded by wicked people,,, but my security programs are reasonable, and I am willing to check it, even though the situation reminds me of an medieval map showing the ocean next to Norway - the text in the waters said "here be dragons"...

I have not tested this "PDF Downloader":

https://github.com/nhammad/PDFDownloader

An innvoative web scrapping solution to save time.
Instantly download all necessary pdf files from a webpage.

Additional modules you might have to download:

BeautifulSoup4-4.9.1
lxml-4.5.1
wget 3.2
requests 2.22.0

How to Use:
Download the Python script and run it on your terminal

python3 PdfDownloader.py
Upon getting a prompt, enter your course link.

Your files will be downloaded in the same folder from where you run it.

@GirkovArpa,
The crossover-lite is in some ways a fantastic application.  :up:

But in every day life it is missing at least one important feature: Remember my favorite theme.

The default theme, with a feather, will never be the one that is needed for the job - and it's simply too disappointing to have to navigate for a usable theme, everytime I launche the program!

Any chance it will be updated?  :tellme:
