-<h2>A Generic Theory Browser</h2>
-<p>
-Proof General has very limited mechanisms for helping the user find
-theorems and definitions during a proof. It has notion of displaying
-a "current context" for a proof, and configuration with a proof
-engine command for searching for theorems. It would be useful to
-extend these facilities with a <i>theory browser</i> for investigating
-the theories currently defined in (or available from) a running proof
-assistant. This involves designing a small protocol to communicate
-with the proof assistant and a generic way of displaying theories
-which have different aspects from system to system. A way which would
-fit in well with Emacs would be to use a <tt>dired</tt>-like buffer.
-</p>
-<p>
-An alternative version of this project would be to write a standalone
-theory browser which uses an extension of the forthcoming Proof
-General standardized protocol for interaction (see white paper <a
-href="/home/da/drafts/#white">here</a>). This could be implemented in
-Java, or in a functional language, Perl, C or C++, so long as a nice
-toolkit is chosen (Qt or GTK).
-</p>
-<p>
-(For a related idea, see the browser integrated with OCaml).

-<b>Skills:</b>
-Interface programming skills.
-Basic understanding of what theories are for several different proof
-assistants.
