Greg -

First - a big note of appreciation for your work on Dillo! It's always a tremendous (and astonishing) thing to see DOS apps still being developed in 2011! (Hell, it's even good to see apps *ported* to DOS. :ok:) That's 30 years since it's birth!

Second - i actually *did* read the PDF manual! :-D And took a look at -- and edited -- the batch file.

Speaking of which, i have a question. In the batch-file line:

  set NANOSCR=1024 768 565

it's obvious what the "1024" and "768" are for. But what does the "565" mean?

Another big thanks for changing the code to SFNs. (LFNs, forward slashes in path names, and mixed-case command lines in unix ports DRIVE ME NUTZ! But not so nuts as to not appreciate the port.) The mouse movement is now much smoother too.

I haven't been able to test much with Dillo, as i do not have DOS access to the internet setup (i'll probably be using it mostly to display local files). But overall, Dillo is looking good!

- Doug B.
