OffTopic > Vonkeror: the new web-browser

#164447 - zzo38computer - Sun Nov 02, 2008 3:55 am

I used to use Firefox but now I use Vonkeror and I am writing it myself, it is based on Conkeror and XUL-runner.http://zzo38computer.cjb.net/vonkeror/ Please make a comment of it, suggestion, bug report. There is no toolbar, menu bar, icons, menus, warning about phishing, or stupid thing like that. You have to push f12 [ if you want cookie management and f12 ] for bookmarks management. To save a image you push C-] i C-s and it number the images, you push the number of the one you want. There is no tooltip, instead it displays in mini-buffer. Next version: 0.2. I want you to post comment, please.

Because, although it sounds interesting, I'm pretty happy with firefox, and don't want to go through the learning curve of a homemade browser with no visible UI.

The only browser which can make me horny is Opera :) It's the most underrated browser on earth... sadly...

Underrated? I'd have to disagree. Opera's really awesome and all, but it's gotten a good share of hype. I would be willing to agree that anything more popular than Opera is overrated, though.

Now it includes a improved gopher supporting! And I also made a gopher server in FreeBASIC as well.
