Link Summary: UI
So, mostly for fun, I decided to build an application to which you could feed a URI and have it explore the returned HTTP stream, extracting any URIs and optionally explore those too — with as much recursive depth as you care to have it explore. I’m not sure when I’ll fill in the logic behind the UI, but I spent about an hour getting the UI tuned the way I like. As you resize it or divide the form’s width between the text (left) and browser (right) panes, the position and size of the text and text boxes change following some logic that I worked out to make sure that it would always be readable. Following are three images demonstrating how it responds to manual adjustment (images are at 1/4 actual size):
Default Appearance: 
Browser Pane Reduced Considerably: 
Tall and Skinny:

I dig the idea and the UI. What programming language / development environment are you using?
Hi David, my go-to language is VB.NET. That’s what this is in. Visual Studio is the most efficient tool for developing UIs that I’ve ever used.
