Have you seen wwwoffle ? It caches, proxies and does offline browsing. It's
also stable, GPL and, er, cool.

Some people started work on a front end to it ('koffle'). I suggested they
think about trying to get it integrated into konqy. It would beat the pants
off the lame stuff in MS's IE.

You can tell wwwoffle when you're (on|off)line, so I add 'wwwoffle -online'
and 'wwwoffle -offline' to kppp's commands-to-run stuff. Very neat. The
only real problem with it is that the history is often huge and not that
nice to browse. Even simply adjusting the HTML that wwwoffle generates
would make this extremely nice, though I think sticking stuff into a
QListView would look better in konqy.

Cheers,
Rik
