Camino 1.1b - Now With Session Saving Built In


The hard working folks behind Camino have released Camino 1.1 beta to an eager world. The most important change since alpha 2 is an integrated restore pages feature as you see above. Although it was previously possible to get a plugin to do this called CaminoSession (as we mentioned earlier), it's nice to see it baked in. Camino 1.1b will now ask you if you want to restore pages that were open if Camino crashes (or is force quit). At this point, I simply cannot use a browser without a restore feature, so I'm quite happy to see this. Although I used it regularly back in the Chimera days, I had of late moved completely to Safari (with Saft). But I've been using Camino more and more lately since I'm now regularly having to access a website that won't render properly in Safari, and I'm continually more impressed. Maybe our fearless leader knew what he was talking about after all.

As before, Camino 1.1b is a free download from the Camino beta page.

CaminoSession - Session Saving for Camino



We just let you know about a session saver for Safari called Forget Me Not, and now I'm happy to find a similar utility for Camino. At this point in my internet life session saving is an absolute must for me, and the lack of it was a huge strike against Camino in my book (despite its being favored by our fearless leader here at TUAW). It's incredibly annoying to open a bunch of tabs for later perusal only to lose them all when your browser crashes. CaminoSession will automatically save and then restore your tabs when you restart and is a most welcome addition to the more Mac-like Firefox alternative.
