[6] SixBrowser

[Wade Rackley]

Any headway on the browser project?  Someone had agreed to look at 
getting the source code for our only browser choice in order to update 
and stabilize it a bit.  I am willing to pay for a SixBrowser.  I bet a 
few others would be too.  (And yes, I am aware how time-consuming it 
can be to program for the System Six environment.  But a good (not 
great, just usable) graphical browser is all that Six lacks to make it 
viable for more general use.  I bet that a more modern version of Samba 
would be really life-giving to LOTS of older Macs that are shelved, 
dusty, and forgotten.

Has anyone taken up the cause?  Or has it become a dead issue?

So, would a new, well coded browser run as quickly as everything else 
in System Six?  Would it make my SE/30 run faster on the Internet as a 
Six Box than when I use iCab with 7.1?  It is just soooooo slow in 7.1 
and the amazing speed of Six makes me think of pages that load a bit 
quicker with fewer "hangs" etc.

Am I a fool?
