A WebBrowser for [GNOME]. It used to be the default, until Epiphany was forked off from it and 'dumbed down'. It is based on the [Gecko] engine, so its rendering and standards compliance are the same as Mozilla's. However, many more advanced users still prefer Galeon over epiphany and [Mozilla]/MozillaFirefox for a number of reasons: * tab completion in the location box (for sites in your history or the local filesystem) * best tabs implementation - you can drag the tabs around to change the order/detach/change windows * drag bookmarks and urls to your bookmarks toolbar * gnome-vfs and [GTK] skin integration (c.f. MozillaFirefox) * supports pasting urls into the window to open new tabs (epiphany removed this) * right-click on an image gives the option to block all images from the same server, permanently (epiphany removed this)
