Camino Web browser for Mac OS X that has a Cocoa user interface, and embeds the Gecko engine
Camino 2.0 Beta 2 / 1.6.7Camino is intended to be a free, simple, small and fast browser for Mac OS X. Camino is stable enough to use day-to-day, but you may still encounter bugs. You should always keep backup copies of important data that you use with Camino (e.g. your bookmarks file). Camino is a web browser optimized for Mac OS X with a Cocoa user interface, and powerful Gecko layout engine. It's the simple, secure, and fast browser for Mac OS X. Camino is a browser that practices the art of simplicity with an uncluttered user interface but with the features you would expect from a modern browser like pop-up blocking settings and tabbed browsing. Integrated with Google, Camino's Google search field lets you find what you need faster. We take your security and privacy seriously. That's why Camino comes with advanced cookie settings. Camino also helps you recognize when entering and leaving secure web sites. One of the fastest browsers on MacOS X -innovative features enhance what you get out of the internet. The power behind Camino is the Gecko rendering engine, built and tested by thousands of volunteers, incorporating the absolute cutting edge in web innovations. Toolbar Search Improvements One of the most requested features has been the ability to easily customize the toolbar search field. Camino 1.6 now includes an editor that allows deleting, renaming, and reordering search engines. Camino also supports OpenSearch search engine plug-ins. New search engines can be added to the toolbar’s search field by automatic discovery or by web pages that provide links to OpenSearch plug-ins. Streamlined Find Interface Camino 1.6 removes the Find panel and replaces it with a simple, unobtrusive Find toolbar that appears near the bottom of the browser window. With back and forward buttons at your fingertips and incremental find, the Find toolbar makes finding words on a page easier than ever! Tabbed Browsing Improvements Camino 1.6 includes a scrolling tab bar. When more tabs are open than can be displayed in the tab bar, arrows appear at the right and left edges to allow scrolling the bar. As part of this change, the tab overflow menu has been replaced by a menu displaying all open tabs in the current window. Software Update Updating to the latest version of Camino is even easier than ever with Camino’s new auto-update feature. Integrating with the popular “Sparkle” framework, Camino now automatically checks for new releases and optionally installs them. AppleScript Support Camino now includes enhanced AppleScript support. AppleScripts can now refer to individual tabs and windows, add, open, and delete bookmarks, and even have custom toolbar icons. For more information on the new AppleScript features in Camino 1.6, see our development guide. Keychain Support In addition to saving logins and passwords in the Mac OS X Keychain, Camino 1.6 can now store information for multiple accounts in the Keychain. Camino also maintains compatability with Safari Keychain entries, allowing easier switching between web browsers. Feed Detection Camino supports the detection of RSS/Atom feeds in web pages. When a feed is found, an icon appears in the location bar. Clicking that icon and selecting a feed will send the feed to your default Mac OS X feed reader. New in Camino 1.6 is the ability to pass feeds to certain web-based feed readers including Google Reader, Bloglines, and My Yahoo. Spell-checking Camino includes the built-in Mac OS X spell-checker on every text field. Unlike Firefox, this spell-checker is the same one used throughout Mac OS X. Now you don't have to worry about making spelling mistakes when writing for your blog, leaving comments, or posting on your favorite forum. New in Camino 1.6: For users of Mac OS X 10.5, you can now change the active spelling language. Session Saving Camino includes support for “session saving”, or optionally remembering what pages you were visiting when you quit and automatically loading them the next time you start—perfect for all those times you have to install Mac OS X updates! (See our FAQ for more information.) In addition, while crashes are not common, Camino can load the pages you were visting when you start Camino after it unexpectedly quit. Annoyance Blocking Camino includes an elegant built-in pop-up blocker as well as built-in adblocking, which keeps even the busiest Web sites free of advertisements. Camino’s pop-up blocker gives you the option to show the pop-up, whitelist the site, or never get prompted again. Additionally, Camino includes the ability to keep Flash animation from loading until you’re ready (Flashblock) as well as the ability to disable Java. Open Source The Camino Project is proud to say that our product is 100% open-source software. This revolutionary method of development allows a diverse group of people from around the world to work together on a product that is truly developed by and for the people. With so many eyes reviewing Camino’s code, as well as that of the Gecko rendering engine, problems are caught quickly, resulting in a more robust and secure product. If you are interested in contributing to the Camino development process, we encourage you to visit our Contribute page. We are always looking for volunteers with skills ranging from graphic and web design to testing and coding. NOTE: The Camino Beta version may be unstable and may not be suitable for day-to-day use. Please download Camino 1.6.6 if you wish to use the stable version of Camino. Main features of Camino: Requirements of Camino: What's New in This Release: |
