SkipStone is a web browser software that uses Gtk+ and incorporates Mozilla's Gecko rendering component for web browsing.
One of the standout features of SkipStone is its simple, yet customizable interface. Users can expect all the essential functionality they need from a browser, such as bookmarks and smooth navigation. When it comes to downloads, SkipDownload is the default Gtk+ frontend that works with the popular wget utility. But, if you already have a preferred manager, opting for an alternative is easy.
In order to keep things streamlined and focused on the browsing experience, SkipStone hands off mail and external url handlers to external applications that can be tailored to the user's needs. By sticking to what it does best, SkipStone is able to provide an outstanding browsing experience without getting bogged down by extraneous features.
In terms of technical requirements, SkipStone calls for both GTK+ and Mozilla 1.7.3 or better. The latest release has also introduced the ability to reorder notebook tabs when in tabbed mode, as well as native Gtk+ dialogs for certificate warnings.
