Description Mark Howard 2003-04-20 07:49:10 UTC 
From http://bugs.debian.org/117637

It would be really nice to be able to specify a target window (or frame) name
for the galeon process to open when you run it from the command line and ask
for a new URL to be visited. This would make it possible to reuse a single
window for, for example, the Emacs integrated HTML doc browsing in a couple
of packages I use.

The syntax I am thinking of would be like the 'target' attribute of an <a>
element; something like:

] galeon - 'CLHS' -x http://localhost/doc/HyperSpec/...

Galeon has not seen any code changes since May 2010:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/archive/galeon/log

This project is not under active development anymore and got recently archived in GNOME Git.

It is currently unlikely that there will be any further active development.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone
takes the responsibility for active development again.
