Developed at NCSA, it was the first Web browser to win widespread +use and acceptance. The last release of Mosaic was in 1997. + +mosaic-ck is a fork of Mosaic, with several features that allow it +to work as a basic, no-frills browser on the modern WWW. Think of it +as "lynx with images". There is no support for cookies, SSL, Java, +Javascript, Flash, stylesheets, or frames. Table support is optional +(and doesn't work well). Unicode/UTF-8 is partially supported. + +=head1 OPTIONS + +Unknown options are ignored. If more than one URL is given, only the first is used. + +=over + +=item -mono + +Starts in monochrome mode. Doesn't seem to actually work. + +=item -color + +Starts in color mode. This is the default anyway. + +=item -nd + +No defaults: don't use existing X resources. See I<README.resources.html>. + +=item -geometry I<geom> + +Starting position and size of window. I<geom> is a standard X geometry +specifier, e.g. B<640x480+0+0>. + +=item -display I<disp> + +Connect to specified X display. Default is to use the B<DISPLAY> option in +the environment. + +=item -install + +Install own colormap. Obsolete unless you're using an X server with 256 or +fewer colors. + +=item -iconic + +Start the application minimized. + +=back + +=head1 FILES + +=over + +=item /etc/X11/app-defaults/Mosaic + +Default X resources, for specifying options like fonts and default window geometry. +Can be overridden by the user's B<~/.Xdefaults> or B<~/.Xresources>. +If this file doesn't exist, built-in defaults are used instead. + +=item ~/.mosaic + +Preferences, history, annotations, etc are saved here. May also contain these +optional config files: + +=over + +=item mosaic-imageselect-sites + +Optional rules for whether to immediately load, delay loading, or not load images +from particular sites.
