Summary : Lightweight WebKit browser following the UNIX philosophy
Description :
Uzbl is a lightweight web browser based on WebKit/Gtk+. Uzbl follows
the UNIX philosophy - "Write programs that do one thing and do it
well. Write programs to work together. Write programs to handle text
streams, because that is a universal interface."

Update Information:
Fix a bug in the default configuration for the mouse bindings that can allow
crafted links to execute arbitrary shell code. Please check your local
configuration and replace "\@SELECTED_URI" with "$8" in any string that is
executed as shell code (usually involves "sh 'commands_here'").
