Re: [dev] [surf] view local file

Ok . I don't have rpm on my box - or allegro . When I try

 surf file:///usr/share/doc/gettext-0.17/FAQ.html

there is no rendering as html, but just the plain view . When I press
Ctrl-o I get to see the linenumbers :) Could you try to install surf
from source and see if local file rendering still work ?
