Re: [Lynx-dev] Javascript in Lynx?

[Jude DaShiell]

If anybody ever tries this, the edbrowse project already did some work 
they'll not need to duplicate.  What edbrowse parsed out of the 
javascript corpus and enabled support for was all functions in the 
javascript corpus it makes sense for users of character based terminals 
to have available and did not support the graphical terminal specific 
functions.  Have there been updates to javascript since edbrowse did 
this?  I don't know but this may provide a good launch point.
