can be used without a network package as a local file viewer
(especially useful with client-side-image-maps)
The latest Voyager, v2.95, newest features include:
- Networking code supporting the HTTP/1.1 standard. This allows Voyager
to "park" connections to HTTP/1.1-capable websites in order to use them
again as needed. Parked HTTP/1.1 connections show up as grey LEDs. This
majorly improves speed when browsing around a web site by eliminating
any TCP layer overhead for connection establishment.
- Persistant FTP implementation. This allows Voyager to maintain
connections to FTP sites instead of reconnecting every time the user
does something. This allows for fast access to FTP sites and better
FTP browsing.
- Voyager is now capable of blitting images to and from Fast RAM on
ECS/AGA systems. This totally eliminates the 1/2 MB Chip mem barrier
and any problems related to that.
- Voyager will now complete a URL you type in as best it can. For
example, entering www.yah will have V complete it with "oo.com"
if you have recently visited Yahoo.
- The print feature has been greatly optimised with options to print
graphics, graphics with background, or text only. Voyager also
supports Turboprint for printing from 16/24 bit screens.
- Searching for text within documents is now possible.
- Cache handling has been improved and optimised, including a new
Cache browser.
- SSL certificate management is included in Voyager's settings area.
Note that this feature is only activated when using Voyager's own
SSL plugin, not MiamiSSL.
- Image decoder now supports the XBM format.
- Voyager can now view and save files using MimePrefs.
- SSL sessions may now be cached.
- Overall layout speed has been heavily improved.
- Voyager's context menus now include a WebTV interface.
- Voyager has a direct interface to Microdot II for news/mail.
