I don't think there is a version of firefox for amigaos4. There have been projects, but none of them I think are active (Correct me if I'm wrong).


You are wrong. See here and here. Note that Amizilla isn't for AmigaOS4 only, it's for all Amiga-like OSes. Also Ibrowse is still in development (at a painfully slow pace) and Paihia is a completely new browser we might see at the end of the year. A new version of AWeb is also supposed to be based on Konqueror. However, I think that they're waiting for KHTML to be ported to Morphos first before porting it across to OS4 and 68k.

Consider yourself corrected. :-)

Oh.. well. I know about those. and if those are your examples I do not think I am wrong.. Amizilla does not seem active (Certainly going by the CVS and news on site). I personally don't think it will ever be finished, But I would love to be proved wrong.


The last thing I heard was in May over here. Anton Reinauer gave the update specifically because people were claiming that the project was dead. They really should update that site more often. I can't comment about the CVS contents as I haven't looked at it. It's possible that some people are slow with uploading their updates to the CVS.

Ultimately we will have to wait and see when/if Firefox is ported.
