MicroWeb is a web browser for DOS! It is a 16-bit real mode application, designed to run on minimal hardware.
To run you will need:
- Intel 8088 or compatible CPU
- CGA compatible graphics card (EGA and VGA are backwards compatible)
- A network interface (it is possible to use your machine's serial port with the EtherSLIP driver)
- A mouse
- Text only (this may change in a later release)
- HTTP only (no HTTPS support)
- No CSS or Javascript
- Very long pages may be truncated if there is not enough RAM available
MicroWeb uses Michael Brutman's mTCP networking library for the network stack. You will need a DOS packet driver relevant to your network interface. You can read more about configuring DOS networking here
To build you will need the OpenWatcom 1.9 C++ compiler. Use OpenWatcom's wmake to build the makefile in the project/DOS folder
