So, revBrowser is a non-Linux thing . . .

So, I tried this in a button:

on mouseUp
   put URL"http://www.distrowatch.org";  into fld "wab"
end mouseUp

and got the raw HTML code in my field.

Wonder if there is a way to get that to display like a web-page in a field on 
Linux?

If your Linux has Python+WebKit installed (e.g. it is pre-installed in Linux Mint), you can use the following solution to display the web page in all types of window (easily tailored with/without scrollbars, topmost, bottom-most, etc., sized and positioned):

I integrated this browser into my WYSIWYG Webpage Editor for Linux (written in LC of course) in various ways:

Naturally, the LC embedded browser will be even more convenient when it comes along, but with the solution outlined above my personal need of it is no longer urgent at all.
