General Information
Where can I get NCSA Mosaic?
NCSA Mosaic is available at ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu in
/Mosaic. Both source code and binaries (for Sun, SGI, IBM
RS/6000, DEC Alpha OSF/1, and DEC Ultrix) are available. (You
don't need to have Motif installed on your system to run NCSA Mosaic,
if you pick up a precompiled binary. You do need Motif 1.1 to compile
NCSA Mosaic, though.)
Who developed NCSA Mosaic?
Eric Bina and Marc Andreessen at the National Center for Supercomputing
Applications developed most of NCSA Mosaic.
The CERN World Wide
Web project (in particular, Tim
Berners-Lee) developed the client library and communications code
that NCSA Mosaic uses and created the conceptual framework within
which large parts of Mosaic reside. Many
other people have contributed to NCSA Mosaic's development by
sending us bug reports and comments.
Where's the documentation?
Documentation for NCSA Mosaic is right
here. Details on the X resources NCSA Mosaic uses are here. Documentation on the HTML Widget used
by Mosaic is here.
Is NCSA Mosaic supported?
Yes. For NCSA Mosaic support, please send email to
mosaic-x@ncsa.uiuc.edu; we will respond to the best of our
ability.
