Hi all,

I just made unofficial builds of 1.8a5 available from my builds page

http://weilbacher.org/Mozilla/builds.html

both as installer and as ZIP file. As usual, the C-Library version 0.5.1 from Innotek is needed.
http://download.innotek.de/gccos2/runtime/libc-0.5.1.exe

I have made a few modifications over Mike's official build. These four should not cause any incompatibilities:
0. Packed the executables with lxLite
1. Enabled MNG/JNG graphic formats (type MNG_BUILD_FULL_MNG, bug 18574)
2. Horizontal Scrollwheel to work by default (bug 231718)
3. Removed extra menu item for IE users (bug 255611)
4. Removed debug output of calendar (bug 271790)

The next three will cause problems with e.g. Language Packs. I learned a bit from the last releases and therefore they are not part of the main download, I put them in an extra ZIP file (test-mozilla-os2-1.8a5.zip)
instead:
4. Enable F1 to call the help contents (extra patch from bug 88739)
5. Slightly reorganize the print dialog, now uses checkbox instead of radio buttons (bug 263312). Questions:
+ How bothered are you by the removal of the filename field?
+ How many are printing in batches and would like the filename to be remembered after each print operation?
6. Added GUI options for horizontal mouse scrollwheel (bug 143038). I have tested that this works with the AMouse driver version 2.50.
See under Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Mouse Wheel.
Especially for the last two "testing" features I would like some feedback
( http://secnews.netscape.com/netscape.public.mozilla.os2 or to "mozilla at weilbacher.org")!

Btw, as for the official build the MailNews drag-and-drop crash is still there, Davide's NSPR fix for enigmail is included (but untested).
