- Installation Instructions
- ==============================================================================
-
- By default, Netscape expects to live in the directory c:\netscape.
- The easiest way to install Netscape is to create the c:\netscape
- directory and unzip the Netscape zip file there.
-
- If you place Netscape in a directory other than c:\netscape you should
- update the following fields in your INI file:
-
- [History]
- History File=c:\netscape\mosaic.hst
-
- [Bookmark List]
- File Location=c:\netscape\bookmark.htm
-
- If Netscape cannot write these files (for example, if the directory
- doesn't exist) Netscape will still run; however, global history and
- bookmarks will not be saved between sessions.
-
- * Initialization File
- The zip file for Netscape contains the initialization file netscape.ini,
- which has entries for all of the values you can customize for Netscape.
- If you have never used any other versions of Mosaic before, you should
- copy the netscape.ini file to your windows directory.
-
- * Reusing NCSA Mosaic INI files
- If you would like to reuse your initialization file from NCSA Mosaic for
- Windows, you can go into your windows directory and copy mosaic.ini to
- netscape.ini. Netscape will be able to read home page information out of
- the file, but is currently unable to convert NCSA Mosaic hotlists into
- Netscape bookmark lists. If you reuse an old INI file you should make
- sure you add the fields for "History File" and "File Location" as
- outlined in the Installation section of this document.
-
- * Please read the release notes under "Help -> Version Information".
-
- * Yes, this is Mozilla.
