AmigaOS4 port of Origyn Web Browser with ARexx port, a simple toolbar
and scroll bars added.
All required shared objects are included in this archive. If you
haven't used OWB 1.13 or newer yet you have to copy the file
OWB/Workbench/Devs/curl-ca-bundle.crt to your DEVS: directory for
https:// to work, but except for that nothing has to be installed.

Change history:
1.21 (18.4.2008)
- Added a workaround for font releated OWB memory leaks in the AmigaOS4
font implementation.
- Fixed http://crashlog.os4depot.net/cl25 and
http://crashlog.os4depot.net/cl37
- Speed up text rendering.
- No longer uses own pointer mouse pointer.
1.20 (11.4.2008)
- Optimized scrolling, now the moved parts are really scrolled and only
the new parts updated instead of updating everything.
1.19 (24.3.2008)
- Fixed wrong offsets in frames.
- Now ignores fonts using URLs.
- Protected the up-/download ASL requester from concurrent usage.
- No longer tries to download anything but application/* mime types.
- Added the changes to only render the visible parts and made it
configurable.
If the tooltype LOWMEM is set it only renders the currently visible
part of a page instead of the complete one. That way it needs much
less memory on large pages, but scrolling is much slower, it's not
optimized at all (for example it doesn't scroll but rerenders the
complete visible part instead), and I didn't get everything working
correctly yet, for example the selection frames around text input are
wrong.
- Built current version of SDL_gfx as shared object and added
workarounds for the zoomSurface() crashes on http://qxl.dk/ in it.
1.18 (11.3.2008)
- Fixed wrong scrolling and incomplete updates, for example in
textareas.
- When downloading OWB now checks if the file already exists and a
requester is opened to confirm overwriting it or cancel the download.
- The comments of downloaded files are set to the URL.
1.17 (6.3.2008)
- The download progress windows are now opend on the correct screen.
- Fixed wrong download attempts for urls without mime type.
- Fixed too short filename buffer, downloading to FFS partitions works
now.
- Included a new version of libgcc.so required since 1.16.
1.16 (5.3.2008)
- Disabled the alerts on memory corruption and errors like double free()
in the memory allocator.
- When resizing a page, incl. the updates while loading, it now frees
the old one before allocating the new one. Should make it usable on
Amigas with only 128 MB RAM again for a lot of pages.
- Added download and upload support <Andrea Palmatè>.
- Changed the memory allocator to support multiple threads for the new
download threads.
- Added progress windows for the downloads.
1.15 (1.3.2008)
- In 1.14 stdio wasn't disabled for workbench start, fixed.
1.14 (29.2.2008)
- Implemented a new memory allocator for OWB.
It's slower and needs more memory than the prevous one, 256 MB is
probably the minium for OWB now (it will never need more for most
pages since I don't have more RAM in my A1 ;-) but more sites work in
OWB without crashing now, for example OWB doesn't crash on exit any
more, usually even killing the rest of the system, after using
http://maps.live.de/
- Added scroll bars.
- Rebuild with GCC 4.2.3.
1.13 (23.2.2008)
- Fixed OWB bug 178 (fonts related endless loops) in the AmigaOS4 fonts
implementation.
- If loading a page failed the progress bar is set to 0 now.
- Added tooltype DISABLEGIFANIMS, if it's set the anims are still played
once since usually the last image is better than the first.
- Added tooltype DISABLEJAVASCRIPT.
- Using shared libcurl, libssl, libxml2, libxslt and libz now, you have
to download sobjs.lha, extract it and and copy them to SOBJS:.
Not required if you used AmiUpdate to update OWB, the new shared
objects were installed automatically already.
- The shared libcurl uses DEVS:curl-ca-bundle.crt instead of
S:curl-ca-bundle.crt (since it's not a script using S: was wrong).
- Mounting RANDOM: is not required any more.
