Continuing the tradition of insanely unstable software, Netscape
Communicator 4.0b3 is now available in the outland locker. To run:
add outland
netscape-beta # For Communicator
Netscape Communicator 4.0 is, of course, Netscape's latest, greatest
attempt to eat processor cycles, memory, and display their remarkable lack
of any software engineering. Other than that, it has a spiffier UI, is
better integrated, supports CSS1 (Cascading Style Sheets), Dynamic
HTML, Dynamic Fonts, and lots of other features you're sure to use. For
more information, try the release notes:
http://home.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/4.0/relnotes/unix-4.0b3.html
Netscape Communicator Preview Release 3 is installed for Linux, NetBSD,
Irix, Solaris, HPUX, and SunOS. Plugin directories are supported
as before, but of course there aren't any plugins for UNIX. (Except for
the Acrobat reader, that is.)
Dynamic Fonts are only available on Solaris and Irix.
Enjoy!
