I don't have time to get involved in it, but I was interested if anyone had
tried.  Dillo has a very small code size.  And, it appears all but one
necessary libraries are available for DJGPP.  There is a another DOS
web-browser with graphics, but IIRC, it is closed source.  I remember seeing
a tcl/tk to gtk library somewhere about a year ago and I know tcl, perhaps
tk(?), has been ported to DJGPP.  Also, wrappers could be written for the
DJGPP X11 libraries or Allegro.
