Somethings I've found interesting when comparing browsers: It seems that only Lynx supports viewing a gzip file eg README.gz. Only Lynx and IceApe (don't know about other mozilla) view plain text internally; knoquorer and galeon open a notpad thingy. Only IceApe lets me specify the location of the cache (per-user tmp on my encrypted swap tmpfs /tmp). KDE says one can configure everything. I haven't figure out how to configure the cache location; any ideas? It seems that there is on _one_ browser that does everything. I may be able to configure it to run less on *.gz. My main concern with the mozilla-based browsers is the frequency of security issues. Yes the security team keeps on top of it all but I'd rather use a rock solid browser. Thanks for all your ideas.
