No, the compiler is too old.

ok thanks

Always interested in browsers here.  Still trying to find a way to cut and paste
in 4.3.1 netsurf (non gtk version)

Vivaldi on win32 was going to try also...(a new one from the opera team)

others been using

xxxtem
surf
links

Surf -s -p www.google.com     is a handy way to run it....

perhaps it's a crazy or impossible idea, but a statically compiled version might be useful hehe:)

Hello,

Ofcourse, Juanito is right with regard to upgrading.

ALthough i believe Flash isn't implimented in Fifth.  This does not bother me
but my 256 ram system can only run the old flash 10.03.

This old laptop therefor needs a little tinkering to even get 4.3.1 browers to work
right with my flash 10 file. It usually means also changing another repo file called curl if i remember correctly.

ALso Juanito, i am not really sure if tcl 5 and 6x would even work at all with my flash 10 file on any arbitrary browser they offer.?

Having tried it, fifth is a nice browser indeed.

hmmm
