Description : Small based fast and lightweigh broeswer for CSS, DHTML, animated graphics
(Include the long description here.)
o lightweight: starting at 3.8 Meg and works on a 12M/386 (in X!)
o Packaged as a single standalone binary, that you can modify!
o improved configurability, and tighter OS integration
o better fault resilience and crash proofing
o reliable client side scripting via Safe-Tcl
o an embedded macro processor: TML. Standalone to!
o less-mouse, and mouse-less operational support
o configuration defaults adapt to available resources
BrowseX is a free Open Source, cross-platform Web Browser, Mail
Program, Talk/Chat client and more. There is a database interface,
SQLite, and BrowseX is easily extensible via an API. BrowseX has been
written primarily in C and Tcl and clearly demonstrates that Linux
applications can indeed bridge to Windows. The user can also
dynamically configure any widget, even form fields in web pages, on
the fly using Shift-Control-mousebutton. You may also want to look at
TML, a CGI and Web Script that BrowseX has built-in. The
http://dev.browsex.com/ site now uses the TML CGI to display the
BrowseX documentation as TML directly.
For the user, BrowseX has two principle characteristics: resilience
and responsiveness. The first comes really as a side effect of using
Tcl for all highlevel algorithms. Errors result in popup dialogs
rather than crashes. Responsiveness is probably due to lightweight and
the widget based implementation which forced clean interfaces between
parts.

Hello,
This is an automatic mail sent to close the RFP you have reported or
are involved with.
Your RFP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.
As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the RFP is still of your interest, or there has been
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).
To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:
reopen 309136
thanks bts
Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
309136@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.
A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.
Thanks for your cooperation,
-- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org>.
