Actually, I think it is plugin-compatible with netscape, not necessarily |
| 14 |
netscape-based. For example, Konquerer can use the same plugins. At |
| 15 |
any rate, it is probably best to think about this now, hence using |
| 16 |
nsplugin, rather than later, when whiz-bang $browser comes out that has |
| 17 |
its own plugin interface. |
