Well, several years ago, Michael Polak told me that he planned a native Windows port of Arachne, which would use Multitasking, support several browser windows instead of just running in full-screen mode, etc. As we all know, MP considered DOS to be an OS for the poor, and Arachne a web browser for the poor, and the only reason why it does not support some advanced features of web browsers for other Operating Systems is that he thought that the old machines of those he considered his target group would not be able to make use of those, anyway. He also thought of Arachne as a vehicle of introducing the Wonderful World Of Linux to those who did not know anything apart from DOS, and was very disappointed when the Linux version did not become as successful as he had expected. This somehow reminds me of the plans of IBM to market OS/2 as "a better Windows than Windows". ;-) Regards, Udo -- The DR-DOS/OpenDOS Enhancement Project - http://www.drdosprojects.de -- This mail was written by a user of The Arachne Browser - http://arachne.cz/ Arachne at FreeLists -- Arachne, The Premier GPL Web Browser/Suite for DOS --
