Nits in Makefile:
BUILD_DEPENDS =3D lang/nim #security/libssh2 archivers/brotli

Think the comment above was leftover by mistake?

Also while no spaces where tabs are preferred, but the lines are not
very symmetrical? Staggered rather than consistent. Not big.
Possible change below.

Spelling/grammar looks fine.

Otherwise I can also attest to this building and running.

$ cha --version
Chawan browser v0.4.3 (release, sandboxed by pledge, poll uses poll)

This is was with foot on sway if it makes any difference. Could make
images load with the alt-i key combo, which was odd but cool in a
terminal browser for me at least.

Looks neat. Bit better than lynx for github pages, though w3m has tabs,
but no github display(though everything else loads). This along with
surf, all these options are great to have.

Thanks for the port. Might use this regularly in multiple foot
windows.

Sorry for any noise.

Hope this helps and may you have a cool one.

Don't know if that reads better. Thoughts?
