NetSurf
NetSurf is a web browser for RISC OS. It is under constant development, and it is rare for there to be more than a couple of days' wait between builds.
Since NetSurf is open source, anyone can contribute to the project. The source repositories overview contains details about how to obtain NetSurf's source code.
NetSurf has also been set up to allow automatic updates via the RiscPkg utility. To make use of this facility, edit
Choices:RiscPkg.Sources
to include the following line of text:
pkg http://www.netsurf-browser.org/builds/riscpkg/packages
(Further information is available in the RiscPkg documentation.)
In addition to the NetSurf application, this distribution currently includes packaged versions of:
- DRenderer
- SharedUnixLibrary
- Tinct
If you do not wish to use RiscPkg, it is still possible to download and install NetSurf "test builds" manually - see link below.
