NETSCAPE Product Documentation

Netscape Communicator is more than just a web browser.

Fermilab does not distribute Netscape Communicator. Use install_netscape to download and install this package.

The netscape navigator (web browser) is used, after installation, by:

     setup netscape
     netscape
 
Note:
The setup of netscape may create a .mailcap file, or advise modification of an existing .mailcap file. This file defines application interfaces to provide display functionality which many applications lack. The interfaces defined are very general and, although they will work with netscape, netscape may have internal routines to accomplish these tasks.

To reset these interfaces for use with netscape, from within netscape go to:

     edit | preferences | navigator
                            - applications

and make the changes there.
Please do not modify the .mailcap file. That could cause other applications to break.
