In-Depth Information
Netsurf was originally developed to run on RiscOS but has since been ported to
many other older platforms such as AmigaOS and Haiku. Netsurf also has another
interesting feature: it can be run without any other graphical support software such
as X11. This makes it ideally suited for an extremely secure web kiosk.
Unfortunately, Netsurf does not support JavaScript, making it unsuitable for
browsing modern websites. Plans to fix this issue are in place for version 4.

LXTerminal
LXTerminal is the default terminal emulator that is included with Xfce. LXTerminal
allows you to run console applications inside the graphical environment of Xfce
and acts as a bridge between you and your Raspberry Pi, similar to what Xfce does.
We will discuss using LXTerminal in more detail in the following chapters.
