Preferably, yes. "Someone" should do that. Perhaps an eccentric
millionaire will hire some programmers to adapt Arachne to todays's
hardware. We can only hope.
It's something of a miracle that Arachne scrolls at all considering
it's origin in the frustrations of Czech college student in 1995
with how slow Windows and Netscape ran on his 386!
By the way Arachne is ten years old now. The first official release
was in the spring of 1996.
