 A lightweight web browser for classic Amigas, in the style of Firefox.
 Its main rule: one web page must never eat all of your RAM.

 THIS IS A BETA VERSION - it is improved and updated all the time.
 AmiFire checks for new versions at start (can be turned off) and
 updates itself with one click.

 FEATURES
 --------
 * Tabs (also private tabs), address bar with search, back/forward,
   bookmarks, history, STOP button, address suggestions from history
 * Start page like a new tab in Firefox: tiles of your favourite sites
   with their icons (add, move, remove), DuckDuckGo Lite search
 * HTTP/1.1 with keep-alive and gzip, HTTPS through AmiSSL, cookies,
   disk cache for images and styles
 * HTML and CSS: cascade, selectors, floats, positioning (absolute,
   relative, fixed), flexbox, basic grid, tables, ()media, variables,
   pseudo-elements; passes the Acid2 test
 * Forms: text fields, buttons, checkboxes, drop-down lists, logins
 * Built-in image decoders: PNG (also interlaced), WebP (lossy and
   lossless), GIF (optionally animated), SVG, ICO; JPEG and others
   through datatypes
 * Site icons (favicons) on tabs and tiles
 * Every tab has its own memory limit; background tabs are put to sleep
   when RAM runs low
 * Downloads panel, right-click menus, page source view, drop-down and
   "hamburger" menus of modern web sites
 * Add-ons, each with its own settings (gear icon): JavaScript (AmigaJS engine,
   optional), search engines without JavaScript, ad blocker, password
   manager (encrypted vault)
 * Firefox themes: built-in gallery (about:themes) with one-click install
   from addons.mozilla.org, or .xpi files dropped into Themes/ - colours
   and header pictures, also on 16/32-colour screens
 * Workbench or own screen (any mode, RTG 16/24 bit or AGA), interface
   font of your choice
 * Safe mode and a start log for bug reports
 * Three interface languages: English, Polish and German
 * Runs on a 68020, and much faster on 060, PiStorm and emulators

 REQUIREMENTS
 ------------
 * 68020 or better, AmigaOS 3.1 or newer
 * TCP/IP stack: Roadshow, AmiTCP or Miami
 * AmiSSL 5 for https:// pages (almost all of the web today)
 * 8 MB Fast RAM or more recommended
 * Images: PNG, WebP, GIF, SVG and ICO are built in; JPEG needs a JPEG
   datatype (OS 3.2/3.9 or Aminet).

 INSTALLATION
 ------------
 Copy the AmiFire drawer anywhere on your hard disk and double-click the
 AmiFire icon. On the first start choose your language on the start
 page (English is the default).

 From the Shell:
   AmiFire                     start page
   AmiFire aminet.net          open an address straight away
   AmiFire LATIN2              Polish characters with ISO-8859-2 fonts
   AmiFire NOCSS NOIMG         no styles and images (least memory)
   AmiFire SCREENMODE          choose a screen mode for AmiFire's own screen
   AmiFire SAFEMODE            safe mode: Workbench screen, built-in theme,
                               no site icons, no JavaScript
   AmiFire DEBUG               write PROGDIR:AmiFire.log (for bug reports)

 SAFEMODE, DEBUG and SCREENMODE also work as tool types of the AmiFire
 icon. If AmiFire did not finish last time (crash, reset), the next start
 is in safe mode automatically; the start after that is normal again.
