Kazehakase (Japanese: Dr. Wind (風博士, kaze hakase)) is a discontinued web browser for Unix-like operating systems that uses the GTK libraries. Kazehakase embeds the Gecko layout engine as well as GTK WebKit.
The browser is named after the short story "Kazehakase" by the Japanese author Ango Sakaguchi; its literal meaning is "Dr. Wind" (a PhD rather than a medical doctor).
