EWeb 0.60

Fixed

• EWeb no longer holds the machine while a big page is unpacked. Most sites send their pages packed. EWeb used to unpack a page in one go once it had all come: iamexpat.de's home page, 3.3 MB of HTML, held GEM for about 9 seconds on a 50 MHz Falcon, and its articles for about 6. Now it unpacks a piece at a time and lets GEM and the mouse in at least every tenth of a second, and Esc stops it. The page takes no longer to load than before.
• Saving to the disk cache no longer stalls on a slow card. EWeb writes the pages and pictures it keeps while you read, a little at a time. A big page was written in one go, which on a slow SD card took seconds at a time. Now it is written in small steps that get smaller when the disk is slow.

Please

• Install the whole zip, or at least EWEB.PRG and EWEBST.PRG.
• With LOG=1 in EWEB.INF, go to www.iamexpat.de through the Pi and open one of its articles, as before. If GEM stalls again, send EWEB.LOG.
