Package: netscape3 (3.04-8) [contrib]

Popular World-Wide-Web browser software (installer)

Netscape (pronounced "Mozilla") is a graphical World-Wide-Web browser with many features. It supports advanced features of HTML and new technologies such as "Java" from Sun Microsystems.

You will need the "ImageMagick" package installed if you wish to get in-line support of image types not directly supported by netscape.

Netscape Communications Corporation does not allow redistribution of their software. Therefore, this package requires the user to fetch the netscape archive separately and place it in the directory pointed to by the TMPDIR environment variable (or /tmp if TMPDIR not defined) before attempting to install this package. You can get the linux packages via anonymous ftp from "archive.netscape.com" as:

   ftp://archive:oldies@archive.netscape.com/archive/navigator/
       3.04/shipping/english/unix/linux12/navigator_complete/
       netscape-v304-export.x86-unknown-linux-elf.tar.gz

(Note: At the time this package was built, "ls" was not supported by the archive.netscape.com ftp server.)

Do NOT try to install any version of Netscape other than that matching the version number of this package!

Netscape Communications Corporation does not support this Linux release in the slightest, even for paying customers. It has been made available purely as a courtesy, so please do not send them questions about Linux.
