Simon,

It appears that the page is incorrect.  The Netscape script can be found here:
ftp://net-dist.mit.edu/mit/macos/web/extras/

As for your other question:
You really can't configure Netscape to do this `by hand' because there's no user interface for registering internet protocols with Netscape, and linking them to helper applications.  The only way to do it is via the AppleScript scripting language, which is what was used to create our Netscape script.

Hi,

On the MIT MacOS 9 help webpage
(http://web.mit.edu/is/help/macos/macos9.html), you mention an MIT extras
called "Tell Netscape to use Eudora". I can't find it on the net-dist FTP
server !  How can I get it ? Alternatively, how can I configure "by hand"
Netscape to do that ?

Thanks.
