Yes I know, but i think someone should take a look at this if they can code. It looks like it should be an easy port since the source isnt to large. Its based off the Safari engine and has many features. I just got it for OS X and posted this using it.

http://hmdt-web.net/shiira/index-e.html


The first Shiira milestone is to implement the features used in everyday web browsing. The following has been implemented in the current version:

Tabbed windows
Bookmark management
Sharing bookmarks with Safari
Side drawer showing bookmarks and history
Bookmarks toolbar
Search field with choice of search engine
Customizing toolbar
Cache control panel
Window appearance switching (Aqua and Metal)
Toolbar icons switching
Removing Cookie and cache at the termination
Displaying favicon list
Enable/disable favicon with bookmark
Help document (Japanese only)
Multiple source windows per one browser window
Displaying HTTP header in source window
Wheel button operation (open in new tab, and tab switching)
Auto-tab for bookmark folder
Displaying back-forward list on toolbar buttons
Search text field for bookmark and history
These features are shown in the screenshots.

haha i am glad it wasnt me who started this post but it hink your right it would be a good browser it can do anything anyother web browser can (for the most part) and the code is all PPC.......though it does have a considerable amout of dependancies on cocoa and the apple web kit....but it hink most of the cocoa issues could be solved by swapping in MUI instead (since there is no way we could/or would want cocoa for MOS, not that cocoa is bad but ya...)

after looking into the code it relies soooo heavily on the Apple Web Kit that we would be better taking the Konqueror engine and creating our own browser...

What would make this easier to port than WebCore?

absolutly nothing they would both be dificult and would be better to actualy start from scratch and jsut borow another browsers engine like Mozilla or Safari

Well actually this browser is based off the Safari engine. My point is if this one guy alone can make a browser using the Safari engine like this, why the heck dont we have something more modern yet? I've used this for a full day now and i am still using it. Its a great browser. Flash sites seem to work fine, secure sites, java script is working even. I wish I could code so I could start working on a new modern browser.
