uzbl for iLiad (experimental)

This is uzbl for iLiad. It's an web browser.
This is still far from usable. Don't download if you want a web browser for practical use.

Contents in the attachment:
1. uzbl binary
2. GTK+ 2.14.7
3. Webkit
4. ICCU, SOUP, XSLT...
5. Config donated by Iņigo (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...4&postcount=62)
6. xepdmgr 1.9i

To install:
unpack (using rar and then 7zip) the attachment to /media/card/programs/, and then a dir "uzbl" will emerge. The path is mandatory. Execute from contentlister.


Known problem:

I only managed to see some weird UI of uzbl. Haven't really opened any webpage. The loading is quite slow.
Attached Files
File Type: rar uzbl.rar (10.69 MB, 375 views)

Hi,
Any idea about memory footprint yet (will it fit in memory)? Any idea how it compares to Midori (also a webkit based browser, see https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=20599?

uzbl is still pre-alpha.
But it has very interesting philosophy, which could fit perfectly into iLiad ecosystem eventually.

Uhmmm... /me thinks I should have to take a marketing job

As to the memory footprint, I haven't seriously looked into it. The problem is that we have to run GTK+2.14 and GTK+2.6 on iLiad concurrently (unless GTK+2.6 got replace by 2.14). It wll definitely take up more memory.
Besieds, I merely managed to build midori 0.11 or 0.12 (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=33582). In fact, I can't build Midori 0.17 to 0.19.
