gpe-mini-browser makes use of the GtkWebcore project libraries.
This is a port of the Apple Webcore (based on KHTML) to GTK. There are
corrently some known open issues with these libraries like broken cookies

their very low footprint and good rendering quality. They are easy to
use in GTK applications and can be used for multiple purposes in GPE.
