Notice that (unfinished) OmniBrowser binding works on Squeak too.

To load it you need this code:

(Installer repository: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository')
    addPackage: 'ConfigurationOfOmniBrowser';
    install.

(ConfigurationOfOmniBrowser
    project version: #stable) load: #( 'Dev' 'Dev Tests').

(Installer repository: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/PavelKrivanek/Phobos/main')
  addPackage: 'Phobos-OmniBrowser';
  install.

This is the startup code:

| app |
OBPlatform  current: OBPhobosPlatform new.
app := PhobosLauncher new.
app startOnWebClient.

Cheers,
-- Pavel
