--00000000000024df8506287d8ec3 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Molasses is a multi-platform graphical gopher client. Updates in this release: - Inline rendering of HTML documents. Supports reasonable subset of HTML 3.2, including tables but not CSS or scripts. Rendering style modeled after Netscape Navigator. - Add smooth scrolling to Gopher menus. - Add control to disable smooth scrolling in Options menu. - Numerous bug fixes and small changes. Download here: https://github.com/jjsimpso/molasses/releases/tag/0.7.4 This was a big release. A lot of backend code changed in order to support HTML rendering. This is a bespoke HTML renderer and there are occasional rendering glitches in HTML pages but it is pretty solid overall. Bug reports are welcome via github or email. For a demo of the HTML rendering capabilities, see my archive of an old 90s web favorite of mine, Fravia's Page of Reverse Engineering: gopher://gopher.endangeredsoft.org/1/90sweb I think it is kind of neat to see HTML served over gopher like this! --00000000000024df8506287d8ec3 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr">Molasses is a multi-platform graphical gopher client.<br><= br>Updates in this release:<div>- Inline rendering of HTML documents.
