You realize that the web predates graphical web browsers, right?
- bane 11y agoNope, it doesn't. TBL wrote WorldWideWeb along with the rest of the early web stack at CERN, and from the start it included a graphical browser which used the NeXT textclass (a richtext class), which could open anything the NeXT systems could open, which included styles, movies, postscript and sounds. The Web has literally never been about VT100 text document displays. I'm not sure why this is hard to understand. That was gopher. I'm really serious. I swear you young people sometimes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WorldWideWeb https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WorldWideWeb Here, email him yourself and ask away timbl [ a t ] w3.org
