NEW: MARQUEE

MARQUEE is a basic HTML rendering widget for Go applications and games using raylib-go. No dependencies other than raylib-go
https://github.com/ha1tch/marquee

Retro-style web-browsing with an early html subset circa 1994.
Handles headings, paragraphs, lists, links, bold/italic text. No CSS, no JavaScript, just enough HTML for basic documentation and help systems.

Typical use cases are simple embedded docs, in-game help, bundling rich popup hints in IDEs, etc. You may also ship the example viewers (html or markdown) with your own application, not having to rely on external web browsers.

Includes HTML viewer and Markdown viewer examples.
I may add images, tables, forms, and minimal CSS if there is sufficient interest. Javascript support is probably never going to be added.

No Electron!!

Deluxe UI with ZX Draw on Linux, and a native host OS dialog box that actually works!

Ensuring that the toolkit works across all three major desktop GUIs may not look like much if you're coming from Electron-world but it does matter a lot that this is just a small self-contained binary with minimal OpenGL dependencies (also no JVM, .NET CLR, GTK or QT needed).

At least to me it does matter! This gives me more confidence that I can actually write competent desktop GUI stuff and complete #DeluxeDraw for general pixel art as intended, and maybe the Postman substitute "Getman" as well (especially without massive Electron / Chrome / Node dependencies)
