How do you evaluate these? Published review? Study of sources? > Have you meant "Oberon sends HTTP request that should be transformed to > HTTPS"? That's where that hypothetical proxy comes in. OK, yes. If http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux is put in the URL bar of dillo, it opens https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux. If https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux is put in the URL bar, dillo opens it. I imagine similar behaviour in Oberon. > Oberon browser sends HTTP request, but gets HTTPS redirect (301/302) in > result. Yes; ideally, redirection is handled gracefully. > Oberon browser sends HTTP request, proxy transforms it into HTTPS, gets > HTTPS reply, transforms it back into HTTP reply ... only to send Oberon > browser a huge pile of HTTPS links to pictures, css, js and whatnot. For now I'd be happy if Oberon could open the text in a simple page. https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Oberon/S3/2003-01-05/Mail.Mod for example. > [1] https://github.com/tenox7/wrp Appears that a X86-64 or ARM system is required. Or possibly compile the source for the old 32 system here; athough, if this could work the binary would probably be available. Probably better to forget this approach and work on SSL/TLS for Oberon. Dillo works quite well. No reason Oberon can't. Thanks, ... P. -- https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Oberon Tel: +1 604 670 0140 Bcc: peter at easthope. ca
