All the talk of donuts today (for breakfast) reminded me of the Donut browser — at least, I think that was what it was called ...
Way back in 1999 or so, I think came across a browser written in C/C++ which was called Donut. I don’t remember much about it now but I think it hosted the IE engine?
I think I used that source code as a starting point to write my own C/C++ browser called Scope:
https://farook.org/Scope.htm
Scope hosted both the IE and Mozilla engines and if I recall correctly, I later re-wrote it in Delphi when I switched over to Delphi as my main development language instead of C/C++. But it was so long ago, that most of this is just a hazy memory 😛
I did a quick Google search for Donut to verify my facts but can’t find any reference to the old browser — only something for Android was there in most search results.
