Re: [Dev-C++] Portable web access and regexp parser

[Vesa N. <wa...@dl...>]

Hello,
 
There's a package called WxWindows that has HTML support. It's packaged
for Dev-C++, you can find it by following the links from bloodshed.net.
I haven't used it but I think I recall it's a cross-platform system. I'm
not sure if there's a linux support.
