my netscape seems to have

under options, general preferences, helpers

application/pdb: Plug In: nppdf.so

looks as if it once had acroread, but now has a plugin.

not sure if this helps or not.

:) I installed the new release today.  Changes I noticed:
:) 
:) 1. I can't read acrobat files with Netscape.  I get a Netscape dialog
:) box with:  sh: acroread: not found
:) 
:) Using: http://web.mit.edu/is/delivery/wro/notebook/SLA.draft2.pdf
:) 
:) 2. "f" no longer seems to be an alias for "finger".  It used to work.
:)     (I will add a personal alias)
:) 
:) 3. When "inc"ing mail using exmh, I get sort of a "beep" (or grunt) from
:) my speakers.  Strange?
:) 
:) Except for Acrobat, nothing is keeping me from getting work done.  I've
:) asked the OLC about it.
:) 
:) Congrats on a seemingly smooth release.
:) 
:) Roger
