Re: More lies about GS Programming from Turkey
Nathan,
A true "port" of netscape will never exist. However, there are valuable
algorithms within the navigator such as HTML interpretation that could be a
tremendous timesaver when creating a true GUI browser for the //gs.
I think any programmer would agree that a simple "port" of the navigator source
code is just not feasible on the //gs, with or without a MS compatible C++
compiler.
And if a programmer told turley that he would "work on a port of netscape" to
the //gs, he propably meant only a portion of the HTML interpretation routines.
And FYI - The entire project is NOT written in 100% c++. There is a fair amount
of "C" code lingering in the project (just like 90% of all other software
development projects).
Turn your rant machine off... It is definitely malfunctioning.
