> File open dialog now seems to work OK :) Please update Dillo too.

Yes, I will do that in the next release of Dillo. Currently I am still working on FlWriter.

It seems to me that the major advantage of the beta2 release didn't get much attention: you can print the document on standard HP and Canon printers now which do not need to have postscript support.

So if you made a PRN file for your printer using e.g. FILE->PRINT->HP Laserjet, you can send that file to your printer using the command line:
"copy /b readme.prn lpt1:"

I will add that command to the menu in the next version. I also forgot to add a file listing all printer compatibilities.
