+=head1 NAME
+
+mosaic-ck - updated, unsupported fork of the ancient and venerable NCSA Mosaic web browser
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<mosaic-ck> [-mono] [-color] [-nd] [-geometry I<geom>] [-display I<disp>] [-install] [-iconic] [I<url>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Mosaic is widely considered the grandfather of the modern web
+browser. 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.
+

+
+=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. Might be useful for ad blocking.
+
+=item mosaic-spoof-agents
+
+List of options for the B<Options> -> B<Agent Spoofs> sub-menu.
+
+=item mosaic-user-defs
+
+Used to define custom actions. Example contents of this file might be:
+
+ Google Search
+ GET:http://google.com/search?q=__string__
+
+To use, highlight some text, then right-click and select B<User> -> B<Google Search>.
