Well, Tk seems to have a problem with my X system - it shows up as all

And the browser segfaults once it gets done reading in the page.  :-((

OTOH, the developers are active and they need / want interest and users, 
so go for it!

hv3 actually has partial javascript support and it works OK on my desktop.

(Hey, since you're a CS student/prof/staff, how about getting someone to 
add DOM/js to links!  Only half kidding....)
