 qtscape?  It was written in a month or so, I think, as a proof of concept,
 based on mozilla code from about 2 years ago.  It is particularly
 crufty, flakey, and several other pejoratives.  No one actually
 uses it (or used it?), AFAIK.  It was merely to prove a point.

 (Just in case anyone was getting excited. :)

 If the web browser within kde handled hotmail, I'd be a lot happier.  And
 if it'd take plug-ins for a few of those annoying third-party thingies that
 everyone seems to use these days (obviously there's too much bandwidth
 out there), I'd be a smidge happier again.

 Jedd.
