This archive contains an AmiWin port of the WWW browser Chimera.
It should work with both the registered and unregistered version
of AmiWin.
Please consider this an early alpha version. Only simple things
like loading html pages and inline images, printing, bookmarks and
caching have been tested. Advanced features like proxies, external
viewers and others things have not been tested at all and are
likely not to work.
Anyway, since I will not have much time to do a lot of testing
and debugging myself, I am releasing this alpha version of Chimera
to the public in the hope to get some useful bug reports that
might make bug fixes easier for me. Besides it is not as if
*that* many WWW browers already exist for the Amiga :-).
Please do not make suggestions about how to improve the
functionality of Chimera (HTML-2/3, NetScape features, better
GUI, whatever). The sources of Chimera are rather old, and I
have no intention to dig through them and implement new
features :).
There is not much documentation yet, and no Installer script.
To install Chimera, simply copy all files in "x11/" to your
AmiWin installation in "x11:".
For documenation, please have a look at the file "help.html".
The caching behavior can be changed in the file
"x11:lib/x11/app-defaults/Chimera". The default setup in that
file is to use up to 10 MB in the directory "x11:chimera_cache",
to NOT delete the files after leaving Chimera, and a cache
expiration time of two days.
Happy WWW browsing !
