Subject: Flipping url-show-status default
Date: Fri, 01 Oct 2010 16:20:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3hbh6ataa.fsf@quimbies.gnus.org> (raw)
The url library is very chatty. I think most users would get a more
pleasant experience if url-show-status defaulted to nil. I mean, our
other network libraries don't issue tons of messages every time you
transfer data, so I don't really see why url fetching should be
different.
This would avoid flashing tons of these messages when you read
HTML-based news, for instance:
Reading [image/gif]... 52 bytes of 45 bytes (116%)
Reading [text/html; charset=UTF-8]... 330 bytes of 321 bytes (103%)
Reading [text/html; charset=UTF-8]... 330 bytes of 321 bytes (103%) [5 times]
Reading [text/html; charset=UTF-8]... 330 bytes of 321 bytes (103%)
Reading [text/html; charset=UTF-8]... 330 bytes of 321 bytes (103%)
Reading [text/plain]... 25 bytes of 15 bytes (167%)
Reading [text/html; charset=UTF-8]... 330 bytes of 321 bytes (103%)
Reading [text/plain]... 25 bytes of 15 bytes (167%)
