Well, first and foremost it is the browser I have on my system.
Features I like?
Well, I'm used to it. How hard can it be for you to add those 4 lines to the test?
It does tabbed browsing beautifully. I usually have 6 tabs open.
It does frames artfully.
It draws page elements superior to lynx. But not links.
It also, being written by a japanese dude, does cjk quite well.
When I have a DISPLAY set it will interact with the mouse and draw images on the page. Handy when I switch screen to my home computer again.
I love the prefs page...
Hey, why don't you look it over?
