Yes, browser is an intelligent terminal (but also dumb 
in some respect), but I fail to see why we need our own 
Harbour wrapped intelligent terminal, since "web standards" 
are supposed to be open standards, so any existing browser 
should do. It would also be a pretty bad thing to create 
Harbour specific client-side browser extensions.

The whole point of the browser, is that it's replaceable, 
available on all platforms, and you don't have to maintain 
your own.

Brgds,
