With the release of Netscape Navigator 4 for OS/2 in the 
last couple of days for public testing the OS/2 community 
was finally graced with a more up to date browser to cope 
with modern web navigation. Unfortunately, as with the 
previous version (2.02), the dialog boxes remain ugly, 
unorganised and waste valuable screen space.

Thankfully, the new Navigator subsytem can be modified 
unlike previous versions, and as a result, the Dialog 
Enhancer team is currently working on updating all of the 
dialogs used. Areas being addressed are :

# Size of dialogs significantly reduced.
# WarpSans used instead of Helvetica.
# All controls changed to Dialog Enhancer standard size.
# Icons to improve clarity of dialog boxes.

Expect to see a beta test containing the patch within the 
next fortnight, before that, we would like to hear from 
users about areas of the browser that need to be addressed, 
and any images that need to be tweaked. The project is 
quite large so all comments are welcome.
