[ale] Browse X

[Chris Fowler]

Netscape uses 12MB on my DOC.  It uses 6MB compressed on my DOC.  How much space can I save with browseX?

Sending this from Browse X. It's very nice, a lot like Netscape
but looks like about 1/3 the memory usage. The packaging is
very interesting too: it includes the Tcl and Tk executables
and source code in a compressed filesystem *inside the BRX binary*,
which it mounts for itself at runtime. So you don't need to
care if you have Tcl installed, or which version. And it's
still smaller than Netscape. Very slick.


Would be nice if it had automatic mail filtering. I've come
to really depend on Netscape's mail filters (which unfortunately
have recently quit working for no apparent reason - guess I
won't lose much by moving to BRX).
