                                Announcement
 
__________________________________________________________________________
 
This is the fourth Release 0.4 of Woven Goods for LINUX. It is a collection
of World-Wide Web (WWW) Applications and Hypertext-based Information about
LINUX. It is ready configured for the Slackware Distribution and currently
tested with Version 3.0 (ELF). The new LST 2.1 Distribution contains this
collection (Release 0.1) as an integral part with some changes.

What's New

  -  New and updated Documents
  -  New viewer package for Portable Document Format (xpdf-0.3)

The Collection consists of five Parts, so it can be used for multiple
purposes depending on the installed Parts:
 
  1. User-friendly browsing of locally available LINUX Documentation even if
     you are not connected to the Internet.
 
  2. Accessing world-wide available LINUX Documentation, WWW and FTP
     Servers, Linux Newsgroups and more. This is only possible if you are
     connected to the Internet.
 
  3. Providing LINUX Information via your own WWW Server. Again this is only
     possible if you are connected to the Internet.
 
The five Parts of Woven Goods for LINUX are:

Part 1 - World-wide Web Browser
     The World-wide Web Browser from Netscape for X11 and Lynx for ASCII
     terminals.
 
Part 2 - LINUX Documents
     The LINUX Documents contain the HTML Pages of Woven Goods for LINUX,
     FAQs, HOWTOs, LDP Documents and more in different formats like
     Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Text and Postscript.
 
Part 3 - World-wide Web Server
     The World-wide Web Server from NCSA with additional CGI Scripts for
     Statistics, viewing MAN Pages and Counters, Glimpse Search Engine and
     the Documentation for NCSA Server.
 
Part 4 - Hypertext Markup Language
     The HTML-Editor asWedit allows the creation of HTML-Pages.
 
Part 5 - External Viewers
     The external Viewers are nessesary to present Information which can not
     be viewed by the WWW Browsers. Only the usefull Viewers (xanim, ia,
