FWIW I see I'm using r13401 and see a wide blue bar across the top

 Unless you write software in C that makes calls to iconv to process
 unicoded character strings then you have absolutely no use for the
 stubs files, which can therefore be safely ignored and deleted.

Splendidly clear.

 Err what is a Stubs folder?

When I unzipped the archive I merged the boot and system. I also 
noticed a folder called stubs. I'm not clear whether its contents are 
used by the boot and/or system during merging or if its contents must 
now remain in situ. My reasoning being that if the merging leaves an 
instruction as to where stubs can be found, if I now delete the 
unzipped archive containing stubs I'll just create another problem.

 Hi,
 I notice the Stubs folder.
 After Boot and System merging, can I remove the Stubs folder from my
 computer or should it be stored somewhere, and if so where?

 The ReadMe says the following:

 Note for developers:
 
 The stubs directory contains source for a set of C stubs.
 See the ReadMe file in that directory for further information.

 Are you a developer? If not, then you can ignore the stubs directory.


 J.

I'm always happy to ignore stuff I don't understand but unhappy when a 
problem arises after I threw it away because I didn't understand its 
importance.

I'm about to assume that, in this case, 'ignore' means the same as 
'delete'?

Thanks John.

 Thanks, Harriet. Found that now.

 I'm assuming that the -jsoff versions don't have this extra option icon
 at all, since the -json versions seem to have the Disable option set by
 default.   (Probably wisest as it makes the application less stable.)

 Er! I must be a luddite. I don't understand the term -jsoff. However, my
 version had the option so I must have the non -jsoff version; whatever that
 means.

 Otherwise I'm not aware of any other mechanism for discerning which of
 the versions you have (other than a much larger !RunImage on disc!)

Think she means javasoft on and javasoft off.
If a  version of netsurf is pre java soft, there isnt a json or jsoff

Netsurf has limitations which are a constant source of tasks for the

However, I use R13065 at the moment and it is stable as far as I am 
concerned. Geminus and Netsurf have never conflicted on my computer.
