Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Yes, of course, Arachne is the only hope for a fully capable DOS
browser. I wonder why there isn't more interest among the DOS
development community in working on Arachne.

What's the point of an operating system in today's world without
a fully capable web browser? Yet, there are people hard at work
on FreeDos and other projects, like yours. I don't understand
the priority.

Don't get me wrong, Udo. I'm not being critical. I just don't
understand why there is so little interest in Arachne.
