As seen on Morphzone, Atlantis has seen the light of the day on MorphOS. The first screenshots [shot 1 | shot 2] were shown, and despite being an early version it clearly showns that it is happening! Atlantis is a lightweight Web browser based on GtkHTML2 and GNOME-VFS [...]A Web browser that fully integrates into the Desktop and that don't depend on another browser or parts of that browser

Keep the good work oGALAXYo! 8)

In reply to Comment 12 (Anonymous):
> And why haven't you done it then?

I just tried to ridicule the approach and you challenge me to do the same?! Smart thinking. If you want to create a browser (or any other application), you don't start with the icing on the cake but with the cake itself. In this case, after the design phase, you might start with an offline browser, ie. HTML renderer, then add scripting, then add networking. Bookmarks? A bit of trivial code on top of the real thing, baby programming, reserved for the last week of the project. Btw, I once tried to create a rendering library just for fun. One idea was to write a renderer that contains editing so that you would get HTML rendering and HTML editing with the same core. Well, it was complicated, to say the least, I didn't even get beyond the intial parsing HTML steps.

> I would like to see you doing all this within one afternoon

I said I might need an afternoon if I'm drunk :) For a window, a toolbar, a menu and a listview I wouldn't need more than two hours and throw in a rexx port, too. It's like Lego, I'd grab the useful parts of skeleton code every developer has.
