It is Internet centric and made for a time when the Net was nowhere near as complex as it is now. Dillo has more capabilities and is not Net centric. I don't like pop3, I've been using my own imap server for a long time. Arachne does not work correctly with Webmail IMP on the horde framework (release 3.1.3). Dillo halfway works with Horde as a lightweight firefox alternative. It probably needs X because it is gtk based, but there is a Windows version and ReactOS is coming along. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

I would like to see it do frames and work with my Horde framework seamlessly, but it impresses me that it runs smoothly at least on my old DX2-66 system. I like the idea of Dillo on FreeDOS - it would be nie to have a web browser for FreeDOS that supports modern XHTML. Arachne does a nice job, but doesn't support everything I need. You're right, the Dillo developers do suggest they are moving away from GTK+ to FLTK http://www.fltk.org/. I don't know if FLTK will work on DOS - haven't looked at it. However, the Dillo project has been frozen since February this year, waiting on funds or sponsorship. So they haven't finished the port to FLTK yet, but it's mostly done for the Highest and High priority items, but unfinished for lower priority stuff. I think it would be a good idea for someone to try to compile the current CVS source using djgpp, and see what compile errors come out. -jh I have the source for 0.8.6 on my Freedos 1 box and notice it is set up for GNU autoconf. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
