When I mean delete and replace, the OS would not know anything changed. Let
Netscape handle all the same calls, function, etc. A drop-in replacement
like 4DOS is for command.com. The only thing that would change would be the
user interface, and it would only be a slight change, I guess.
Somebody make me a transparent drop-in replacement for MSIE. New name,
Netscrape.
