   Browser \Brows"er\ (brouz"[~e]r), n.
      1. An animal that browses.
         [1913 Webster]
      2. (Computers) a computer program that permits the user to
         view multiple electronic documents in a flexible sequence
         by the process of activating hypertext "buttons" within
         one document, which serves as a reference to the location
         of related document. The term is currently (late 1990's)
         used mostly for programs which allow traversing hypertext
         paths in documents on the internet. A typical browser will
         permit the user to easily reverse direction, and view
         again documents previously accessed.
