Hi Ruud,
first I think this has already been done before (a web browser on the
C64).
Secondly, you need to look at the right places... :
http://archiv.leo.org/pub/comp/doc/standards/rfc/
has a list of most relevant internet standards
Have a look in rfc-index.txt for IP, TCP, UDP, SLIP protocol
definitions. You also find PPP there too.
e.g. RFC#:
1661 The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). W. Simpson, Editor. July 1994.
(Format: TXT=103026 bytes) (Obsoletes RFC1548) (Updated by RFC2153)
(Also STD0051) (Status: STANDARD)
>From those protocol descriptions you can build up your own TCP/IP stack.
On top of that you build a browser that talks RFC#
2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1. R. Fielding, J. Gettys,
J. Mogul, H. Frystyk, T. Berners-Lee. January 1997. (Format:
TXT=378114 bytes) (Status: PROPOSED STANDARD)
and can display HTML (unfortunately in german, should be there:
http://www.teamone.de/selfaktuell/)
