- W3 is an Emacs subsystem that allows the user to browse the wonderful
- World Wide Web. The World Wide Web was started at the CERN physics
- institute in Switzerland in 1991. The project was initially started by
- Tim Berners-Lee for distributing data between
- different research groups effectively.
-
- The Web has since grown into the most advanced information system
- currently on the internet. It is now a global hypertext system with
- servers and browsers (programs written to interpret the hypertext
- language and display it correctly, and allow the user to follow links)
- exist for all major platforms (VMS, Windows, DOS, Unix, VM, NeXTstep,
- and Macintosh).
