Always new version here: http://juen.in
Early development release. Expect bugs.
Compatibility first, speed later. Work in progress.
Requirements:
- bsdsocket.library v4+ (works with IMPBOX bsdsocket.library!)
- AmiSSL v5 for HTTPS support (without that still http:// sites works fine)
Included builds:
- Amelinium - 68000 (works on all Amigas, slowest)
- Amelinium_020 - 68020+
- Amelinium_040 - 68040+
- Amelinium_060 - 68060+ (fastest, recommended for RTG)
- Amelinium_low - AmigaOS 1.3 (Kickstart 34+), no images
- Amelinium_020_JS - 68020+ with built-in JavaScript (experimental)
- Amelinium_040_JS - 68040+ with built-in JavaScript (experimental)
- Amelinium_060_JS - 68060+ with built-in JavaScript (experimental)
Known issues:
- Some CSS2.1 features not yet implemented
- Many CSS3 features not yet implemented
- JavaScript: experimental (in the _JS builds) - DOM scripting and
some of jQuery work; heavy frameworks (e.g. Google's Closure) still not
- Many pages may render incorrectly
- Slow on 68000, usable on 68030+ (faster from cache)
Keyboard shortcuts:
- Up/Down - scroll
- Shift+Up/Down - page scroll
- Space - page down
- Backspace - page up
- Esc - stop loading / close
- F5 - reload

ttengine.library by Grzegorz Kraszewski (krashan@teleinfo.pb.bialystok.pl) -
high-quality TrueType rendering for AmigaOS / MorphOS / OS4.
http://amiga.pl/ttengine - used with author's permission.
Liberation Fonts (Red Hat, SIL OFL 1.1) - metric-compatible Arial /
Times / Courier replacements.
DejaVu Sans (DejaVu Fonts project, Bitstream Vera license) - used
when CSS names Verdana or Tahoma; matches their wider metrics
where Liberation Sans (Arial-metric) would be too narrow.
AmiSSL by Oliver Roberts - TLS for HTTPS.
stb_image (public domain) - PNG/GIF decoding.
TJpgDec by ChaN (BSD-style, 2021) - tiny JPEG decoder with
scale-on-decode (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). http://elm-chan.org/fsw/tjpgd/
Replaces stb_image for JPEG - same input, half the RAM and
much faster on oversized photo thumbnails.
Amiga Core Fonts for the Web (Amiga Information Center, 2000) -
bitmap fallback when TT is unavailable.
History:
0.8.2 - Frames! Classic <frameset>/<frame> pages now render
properly. New Stop button (next to Go) aborts a slow page.
The whole interface - title bar, menus,
toolbar, address and status bars - now uses your system
default font and grows to fit its size (page content
keeps its own fonts). The HTTP proxy now fetches page
images too, not just the HTML. Pages with large
stylesheets keep their look on reload. Much more
JavaScript runs - jQuery 3.x now parses - plus
URLSearchParams, Image(), FontFace, insertAdjacentHTML
and location/navigator fixes. Table-layout click fix.
Cookie-consent banners now display and respond correctly.
Faster scrolling on content-heavy pages, and table cell
backgrounds no longer spill past their blocks.
0.8.1 - HTTP Basic Auth: pages behind .htpasswd now prompt for a
login/password. Much smoother screen updates - JavaScript
changes, checkbox/radio clicks and typing in text areas
redraw only what changed instead of flashing the whole page.
Links inside JavaScript menus (e.g. a mobile "log in") now
follow through. Tables with align=center are centred.
0.8.0 - Optional built-in JavaScript (NodeAmiga engine), experimental.
DOM scripting, events, timers, jQuery; cookies and localStorage
from script. See jsdemo.html for a live tour.
0.7.6 - Big CSS layout-conformance pass.
Client-side image maps - clickable <area> regions.
Smoother image downscaling on truecolor RTG.
Non-AGA fix: an own screen below 8 bitplanes.
0.7.5 - Big RTG overhaul, every depth now renders correctly:
exact text colour and images/backgrounds on 8-bit and
16-bit RTG (including alpha icons and tiled/strip
backgrounds), and crisp TTF text on 16-bit (rendered via
TTEngine coverage maps composited over the real
background - no more glitched word backgrounds). On-the-fly
screen-mode switch redraws the whole page at the new depth;
light toolbar forced on 8-bit. Forms: POST with an empty
action="" keeps the page's query string.
Disk image cache fixes: no more recoverable-guru memory
crash on chipset/AGA (interleaved-bitmap planes were
saved/loaded past their buffer); cached images now carry
the screen depth in their key, so reopening a page at a
different colour depth re-fetches instead of showing
garbled pictures.
0.7.4 - TJpgDec replaces stb_image for JPEG
with scale-on-decode (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Parsed CSS
disk cache (cp_<crc>) - warm visits skip the full
cascade pass. Lazy off-screen image decode - only
images that land in the viewport are decoded; the
rest stay encoded until you scroll them in. Raw
image bytes cached on disk (r_<crc>) so F5 / next
visit skips the network for off-screen images.
Stage-2 fast path: keep parsed DOM + computed
styles from stage 1, re-run only layout when image
dims become known. RTG gradient one-shot
WritePixelArray, eviction skipped on RTG.
Fixes around ASL/ReqTools save dialogs.
Much faster style resolution on big pages.
0.7.3 - Alpha-mask cache (per-image, native size).
Warm-visit skips stage-1 paint
when manifest hits. Menu text uses DETAILPEN
explicitly (was washed-out gray).
Bugfixes! Find now works again...
Menu reorganization: Search, Amiga, Debug, Test.
0.7.2 - Light GUI option, triple-slot keep-alive image
cache, TTF metrics consistency fix across
TTF toggle and page nav and more
0.7.1 - Fix: TTF rendering on Workbench screen at startup
0.7.0 - TTF, GUI, many CSS3 features, and many CSS2.1
bugfixes and also new features, and also
new bugs :)
0.6.0 - Real flexbox (all directions, wrap, grow/shrink,
justify/align/order), real CSS Grid (tracks, gap,
template-areas), :before/:after content +
counter() / counter-reset, linear-gradient
backgrounds (truecolor RTG, banded chipset),
var() + CSS custom properties, :first-letter,
@media px/em/rem, border-collapse Sec.17.6.2.1
conflict resolution, <col width>, table-layout:
fixed, HTML5 auto-tbody injection, <del>/<ins>/
<mark>, cookie Max-Age/Expires, vh/vw, font:
numeric weight + lighter, ::lang(), extended
list-style-type, fixes for shrink-to-fit autotables,
inside-marker spacing, font-size quantization
0.5.3 - Local pages from disk (Work:..., PROGDIR:...,
file://...), binary file check (executables /
archives go to Save-As instead of showing),
bookmarks sidebar, prefs file with per-mode
window position/size memory, AmigaOS 4 mouse
wheel
0.5.2 - Save-As goes where you pick, position:fixed CB,
@media em units, auto-refresh etc...
0.5.1 - Download fix, pointer, faster draw
0.5.0 - HTML forms, basic table/flex/grid
layout, and many more...
0.4.0 - More CSS, some CSS3, better fonts,
real shadows, rounds, transparent svg and many many more
0.3.0 - More CSS 2.1 compatibility, Proxy etc...
