I didnt say it s a fast and great allround http/ftp/news-client..but
at least it has this protocols _implemented_...and also it may have
some advantages for example over ncftp and it it is good for
fast (i mean fast but not very luxury ;) reading some news or a quick
browsing in aminet.

Why shouldnt a webbrowser like ibrowse or aweb not implement such
protocols (gopher://, ftp://, news:// etc.) also ?
