@jwo links is great. Yes, Dillo only works with FLTK.
The ideal scenario is that you can choose the browser that fit your needs, not that you are forced into a monopolistic browser market.

@dillo Dillo looks like a really cool project. I should try replacing Links with it, but it can't replace it for all my use-cases. 😥 Links doesn't support CSS, so I should try using Dillo for viewing docs etc. I think that the choice of FLTK was great and understandable. I somewhat like this toolkit for simpler or form-based applications and Qt feels clunky in many situations. It would be interesting to have a non-windowed frontend, even with minimal UI. I don't know Dillo source code, but I could assume that the application is quite strongly coupled to the toolkit, as FLTK applications tend to be like that.
