Portable DXR
Name of Project
Portable Dehydra Cross Referene (PDXR)
Description
This project aims to turn the DXR into an extension that can be installed in Firefox or distributed as a XUL/Prism application. This will allow developers with limited or no internet connection to access it offline. The extension will also provide a low-bandwidth solution for pushing updates to the end-user.
