Precision. iCab was made for filtering and controlling the appearance of the webpages, with its filter manager, a quite unique feature. It also controls HTML quality very nicely and has limited friendship with bad HTML. I used it as my primary browser (in URL Manager pro) before mac OS X and before it became apparent (this is no longer true) that CSS were not interpreted OK in iCab. Also used it to print webpages to pdf and control size to prepare printable pages. This is no longer true and I use Firefox for this purpose instead.I'm interested to know what you mean by this. I know both Safari and iCab use WebKit so I'd be interested to know how one is better at "grunt" work and one is better for "precision."
Grunt work. I now use Safari as my primary browser. Since you mention it, I just switched to iCab to see whether or not iCab can also be relied on as primary browser. Safari is, overall OK in all circumstances. Let me verify if iCab is now also like this.
