Re: [Aimmath-developers] -u flag

[Jon B. <jbr...@wo...>]

What would Manolis need to have it set the -u for Safari? The browser 
shows as Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-us) 
AppleWebKit/85 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/85. Safari is also Unicode 
capable.

On a related topic, Neil responded to a post about an issue with the 
seed in Safari with "A quick check with Google shows that there are 
many known problems with javascript support in Safari.  So, I propose 
to ignore this issue." This is actually a big issue. IE is no longer 
supported on OS X. Microsoft has made a public statement that there 
will be no further development of IE for the Mac. Thus whatever we do 
with AIM needs to work correctly in browsers other than IE. Everything 
I have tested indicates the desire of this group to support multiple 
browsers. I would really like to see AIM continue to embrace all 
platforms while maintaining W3 standards compliance.

Once the beta is released, I will make the necessary changes in the 
configuration files so that AIM will run under OS X. For the most part 
this means copying and pasting the Linux code and making some minor 
changes. So any changes I make and commit will have no impact on the 
Windows or Linux installations. I will also try to create some install 
documents for OS X. They will be very similar to the Linux install 
documents except for the Maple installation.
