Nope this is old information related to the previous implementation.
What you need is to build (or have built by others) the webkit image
used by the new plugin. I've come close to getting this built, but
have a failure related to qt libraries. I do have qt built from
MacPorts - the MacOS native one - but no joy. The X11 qt wouldn't
build for me at all.

There's a windows binary for the webkit image in circulation and it
would be very valuable to have a Mac version too. Has anybody managed
to build this?

The crazy thing is that webkit is already the engine behind the Safari
browser, so getting this built ought to be a no-brainer.

Happy New Year to all,
Dermot
