Lagrange is a GUI client for browsing Geminispace. It offers modern conveniences familiar from web browsers, such as smooth scrolling, inline image viewing, multiple tabs, visual themes, Unicode fonts, bookmarks, history, and page outlines.
Sync bookmark? — I've never been fond of to sync my bookmark if firefox, but now on gemini, that I have a key that is attached to a 'avatar' I'm thinking that having my bookmark synced between all my lagrange browser would be interesting! I assume that if a page would be dedicated to your bookmark, lagrange could sync it... Is that something that is possible / in the work / never will happen?
Maybe this isn't new news, but the cli version of Lagrange (clagrange) now builds from the `build-tui.sh` script. (It didn't before, or at least not the last time I tried it.) It's actually an excellent text browser. It seems weird that @skyjake never got it working until now. Perhaps his reasoning was not to suck the air out of the TUI space like he did the GUI space. Well, that albatross has flown. We are now living in @skyjake's world. Until the revolution ;-)

Updated mobile builds — (UPDATED again on July 7): Android Beta 30 and TestFlight build 1.17 (13) are now available. I fixed (or attempted to fix) a number of issues reported via the iOS TestFlight feedback system. At least a few of these were clear memory access violations (like using freed memory), so hopefully the app is a little more stable now. The rest of the fixes relate to text rendering. I noticed that some glyphs in preformatted blocks were being mis-selected if they were missing from...

[SOLVED] Lagrange on Wayland — I have just installed Sway on Artix Linux, and I am trying to run Lagrange. It runs fine on XWayland, but the 2x scaling makes the window appear blurry. I have managed to run Lagrange on Wayland before; but this time, I keep getting an error about missing videodrivers: [edan:~]$ SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland lagrange [SDL] init failed: wayland not available I have scoured the web and Geminispace, and I haven't found anything useful. Can anyone here help? SOLUTION: Just...

I've had an issue with Lagrange, whenever I open the app, it automatically closes. The workaround is to put in airplane mode and then open the app, wait a couple seconds and then turn off airplane mode. Maybe this isn't the best place to report this, but if anyone can point me over that be awesome I'll fill out a bug report. Gracias

Android Beta 28 — The phone APK has been updated: [https link] Lagrange F-Droid Repo Release notes: Page zoom pinch gesture has a short trigger delay to avoid accidental zooming. Query shortcuts (bang snippets) that already contain a `?` character were prefixed by a redundant `?`. Fixed a link being opened inadvertently after the link's context menu is dismissed (by tapping outside the menu or by selecting "Cancel"). Updated UI translations. This has the same changes as the iOS TestFlight...

The new TestFlight build 1.17 (11) improves pinch gesture handling by adding a short initial delay. This should avoid accidental palm-zooming especially while using a Pencil. Another longer-term annoyance has been that link context menus could not be dismissed without activating the link. This was fixed, too. A new Android build is not yet available. I'll make one when I have a bit more time...

Emoji support in Lagrange — @skyjake I knew we already talked about this but Emoji support on Lagrange, on the side panel for instance, it would make Lagrange P E R F E C T ! 🏆 On Android emoji are naturally integrated, and I am pretty sure also on MacOS, on Linux desktop I have to go on Firefox, copy the emoji ,and paste into lagrange… 😩 Perhaps you may add it to your to-do list at the very bottom… 🥺

I notice Lagrange has a line-space modifer in the preferences menu. Is there a keyboard short cut one can use to toggle it on and off? It seems very useful on paragraphs, and much less useful for everything else. Accessing it from the menu is cumbersome. I would prefer to access it tactically, rather than have it be a permanent setting.

Random stupidity — I like to tinker with things. A few months ago I had decided to rebuild most of my system with -Ofast to see what would break. (If anyone's interested, very little breaks right away, but you get a lot of subtle bugs and crashes that show up apparently at random.) Well, I rebuilt *almost* everything with sane CFLAGS, but I missed the qtdeclarative package. I just spent hours trying to analyze why Lagrange kept crashing on my machine whenever I enabled or disabled a certificate...

Lagrange losing some old history entries? — I am under the impression that Lagrane loses some history entries after a while. It feels some URLs are marked as unvisited, even though I'm pretty sure I visited them, because in some places I always visit all the URLs. I am not a hundred percent certain, because a link to `example.com/` is not considered the same as `example.com/index.gmi` by Lagrange. If I encounter a non-visited link Im certain I've already visited, it's on another page linking to...

I found a case where the current rendering style does make the page not easily readable. It has to do with preformated text and a large table renderd in text. The page in question: [gemini link]

new window (not only tab) in mobile mode? — i am this kind of person who has lots of tabs opened, and i tend to classify tabs together, these in that window, and these in other. however on mobile we don't have new window, only new tab. i believe new window would be useful.

i don't know if it's only me, but the input field,the one i am writing thi-text in, feels uncomfortable. it is only one line at first,. i wish it was an input field like memo from the beginning. also right now i am afraid to press enter because it won't start from the new line, it will post my unfinished text. this doesn't happen with the long text field.

Android - Justify doesn't work — Hi all. Even with the justify opción enabled, lagrange doesn't justify the capsule text (Android last version)
💬 1 comment · Apr 24 · 2 months ago
Updated mobile builds are available: Android Beta 27 and TestFlight 1.17 (9) These fix a couple of issues with text selection: Changes in the desktop v1.17 caused a regression on touch devices when dragging selection markers. Scrolling while selecting sometimes jumped the view to the top/bottom of the page. (A classic integer overflow when calculating the scrolling speed.)

not sure when, probably after i change the wifi connections, lagrange is not able to resolve the domains. refresh of the page doesn't help, and that doesn't change for hours, the only way to bypass is to quit lagrange and start again. i just did it again and that's why i don't remember what exactly was the error message. but i believe that was about resolving.

Bug in Lagrange on HaikuOS. Attempting to resize the window causes it to crash. Haven’t encountered it with any other software in spite of daily HaikuOS use for years. Don’t have a GitHub account to post an issue and not sure whether it’s even something appropriate since I think the Langrange package for HaikuOS comes from a third party.

Syncing — Is there any syncing function in Lagrange? I found a remote bookmarks thing, but I currently use the import data thing with Syncthing to sync to my Android device.

I noticed that the Lagrange TestFlight says it will expire in 17 days. Will it be renewed, or am I going to have to code my own web-based Gemini client?

Is there a way to change the emojis in use by Lagrange? I want something more like the native system emojis. For example, the full moon on my capsule appears to be just a circle. But I'd like it to look like a moon. I've tried installing some emoji fonts into the font management, but that doesn't seem to do anything (I'm probably doing it wrong).

after finally giving up on the shell script i was previously using (modified astro) i finally got lagrange, and it's pretty damn good. not too many bugs. good work, the preformatted text looks especially snazzy on the default layout. though the window does lag heavily when i move it (running the AppImage on Ubuntu 22 if anyone's interested)

Auto-generated headers — I really like lagrange, but was wondering if there was a way to toggle the auto-generated site headers? It takes up additional space especially when a site already has a header - then it's two headers. I couldn't find it in the settings, unless I overlooked something.
