4.33MB!? For a text-mode browser?

Apparently it unpacks to over 13MB, of which almost 4.5MB is "font_inc.c" containing... fonts comprised of hex-encoded PNG images, one for each letter.

The other big one is "language.inc" at just under 1MB... containing strings in several dozen languages (why would anyone ever need anything other than English and the other 1-2 languages (s)he knows!?)

This is then followed by "configure", a bloated mess of GNUdiocy at over 256KB.

WTF.
