[agises]

Simple ingame text web browser to access some ksp wiki pages, mostly celestials bodies, using HtmlAgilityPack to extract the text from the wiki web. Toolbar optional, alt+w default hotkey.

Looks interesting! Nice work.

Nice, handy for "if you need just that bit of info from the wiki but don't wan't to lose your concentration".

Nice, now I won't have to minimize ksp to get that extra bit of information for say, an Eeloo transfer.

Very cool idea! I'm always checking stuff on the Wiki.

I came here from your "image viewer" post, and am wondering if you have plans on integrating that with this?

Thanks.

You mean a proper web browser? that's out my skills XD. But I can try to make an option in the image viewer to load images from the wiki or any web by copy pasting the url. Make a note with all the image urls you want to use in the notes plugin, paste the url, profit?

Loading from a url in game would be pretty cool, but I was thinking more in the browser. Basically the browser you have now is like Lynx, and you ignore images. If instead you could just load any images you come across in the page (I assume you ignore all css formatting and background images and the like) it would still be the very basic and functional browser it is but just with image support.

Disclaimer: I have no idea how to go about this or if it's easy or hard or what. I just think of things and ask Just having the wiki available in-game is amazing.

RPM integration, maybe??? Would be super cool

RPM integration, maybe??? Would be super cool

What is RPM? Google tells me it's a company that makes coatings, sealants and building materials. It also says it's the RedHat Package Manager which I can't imagine would be useful in a KSP browser. Finally it tells me that it stands for Revolutions Per Minute which I'm sure my Kerbals would like to occasionally know, but isn't exactly in line with the mod.

I can't think of any mods that people refer to by the initials either. Real Polar Mystem?
