Re: any experience with browsh

Tried the brow.sh demo again, got in, well sort of, screen mostly garbage
was able to bring up the URL bar with ctrl-l and tried to erase the 
demo's url and enter 
duckduckgo.com 
just for something. It did say loading but nothing more except garbage.
When I did ctrl-q to quit
my command line prompt was weird, possibly a different video attribute? had
to reboot
to fix that.

Appears not ready for prime time or even beta time.
Thanks all
Tom Fowle
