Actually, I think it is plugin-compatible with netscape, not necessarily netscape-based. For example, Konquerer can use the same plugins. At any rate, it is probably best to think about this now, hence using nsplugin, rather than later, when whiz-bang $browser comes out that has its own plugin interface. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
