Faster is designed to make your web pages load up...well faster. :)
It's done by adding the WIDTH and HEIGHT components to the IMG tag.
By doing this, a graphical web browser will know the width and height of an
image, put a place holder there, and continue loading the page. This makes the
page load faster because the browser will know the size of the image without
loading the actual graphics file.
You can find faster at the "official" distribution site at
ftp://ftp.rahul.net/pub/ziggyb/faster10.zip
It can also be found at:
ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/os2/textutil/faster10.zip
ftp://ftp-os2.cdrom.com/pub/os2/incoming/faster10.zip but it will probably
be moved to ftp://ftp-os2.cdrom.com/pub/os2/textapps/faster10.zip
