RFC Browser Standard Edition

RFC Browser is a viewer tailored to RFC browsing. It is the most powerful utility to view RFCs that renders RFCs into HyperRFCs: intra-RFC and inter-RFC hyperlinking, Colorful, Visual, Scalable.

Hyper: Most of original RFCs are written in plain text format. Fortunately, RFC Browser provides an alternative way to view RFCs - rendering them into HyperRFCs! In RFC Browser, the RFC Index File and the RFCs look like html files, they own both intra-RFC and inter-RFC hyperlinks: RFC titles and RFC numbers in Index File, entries in table of Contents and references and so on. So RFCs are converted to the format of Hypertext.

Colorful: Users can assign different fonts to RFC Title, Subtitles, table of Contents, Headers/Footers and Default Text.

Visual: Furthermore, RFC Browser provides tree views to facilitate browsing: tree view of RFC Indexing, tree view of RFC structure and tree view of pages.

Scalable: If users choose to hide Footers, Headers and blank lines after Footers and before Headers, the length of RFC will become shorter obviously! Small size of fonts also result in less printing paper.

Most Powerful: If RFCs are your everyday readings, RFC Browser is the optimal explorer to assist you, as you need IE, Netscape, etc to browse web files.
