HiveCraft - In Game Browser Coding

I have been working on trying to code in a browser for the Bank feature, and the @Splinterlands features...

Please be patient, I've been working on stuff relentlessly. The game is in a rough place... If you want to help.. I definitely need it.

In-game web browser. Fetches URLs, searches DuckDuckGo,
queries Wikipedia, and shows live Hive Engine token metrics.
Content is displayed as paged chat output.
