<tt>I may be mistaken, but I believe that wxWindows (used<br>
by PLT, yes?) already has both a very nice "rich text"<br>
control and a credible HTML rendering control, I'd<br>
presume more than good enough to render text, fonts, <br>
some color and the occasional JPG image. Hmmm, I think<br>
I even have an older version of the wxWindows demo<br>
program somewhere on my disk, so I might get around<br>
to checking today. IIRC, th wxWindows framework<br>
made it very easy to put nearly anything inside of a<br>
tab control. But again, the the devils in the details, <br>
I understand.<br>

The only complication here is, that PLT is a cross platform project,
so it is a requirement that the browser component works on
Windows, OS X and Linux. The last time we looked for a library
to use, we couldn't find anything approriate, so it was decided
to spawn a standard browser instead.
