Dillo - Version: Portable Dillo 3.0p6

Not Portable: Writes settings to User folder and AppData

Was looking for a super simple, lightweight HTML viewer. Dillo was GPL, at the 3.0 mark and Softpedia was listing a portable version. Unfortunately, in addition to the non-portable element:

* No drag and drop
* Won't view files offline (html or otherwise)

Will use HTMLDocEdit instead.

Apparently there has been some development since the last test of this software, it has even changed its name etc.
This may merit testing for portability again. Details ...

On WinXP it leaves behind "fltk.org" directories in APPDATA and ALL USERS APPDATA, with "fltk.prefs" files in them.

The problem is that websites look very bad in it, literally broken. For Hungarian sites the encoding is also wrong and I couldn't set it manually.

So it's well below IE6 in quality, I wonder who would use it.
