Very cool, I think they have some nice ideas for how to implement multiple protocols and mime handlers.

I played a bit with it. Ok, ok, more a long than only a bit. ;-)

The following snapshot was taken from Chawan running on an OpenBSD7 pubnix I was connected to over SSH in XTerm on Debian:

The second one was shot via XTerm and SSH too, but this time the remote was a headless Pi2 in my LAN:

Chawan seems to be the first browser in a terminal that does not butcher my Org-Babel notes massively. Even without graphics via Sixels this would have been a big leap for proofreading my own stuff over SSH or Mosh if graphics aren't needed, but sure I won't complain about graphics being supported too. \o/

If you want to bring remote HTML files to the machine where the screen is attached, you can use: - SSH local port forwarding + remote http an server like darkhttpd listening on localhost: % ssh -L 8080:localhost:8080 the.host darkhttpd /path/to/website & % dillo http://localhost:8080 - sshfs + file: % sshfs the.host:/path/to/website /mnt/web % dillo file:///mnt/web So you only need to transfer the HTML documents and images over SSH and moving around doesn't require a round-trip to the server. Best, Rodrigo.
