| I hate to plead ignorance, but can we use these from our lowly vax
systems. Also any pointers on how to best navigate/read/reply to these
areas?

| Joe,
If you have MOSAIC installed on your system it is easy, otherwise get
the MOSAIC kit and it is easy to install in your own account and from
the MOSAIC menu you can enter the name George has in his reply in the
MOSAIC window and bingo, you will see, it's magic.

1355.3 | Where to find it | RUTILE::AUNGIER | Live for today, plan for tomorrow | Thu Mar 24 1994 19:20 | 22 |
| Joe,
The kit is available from the following location and I have included
the simple instructions needed. If you have an ULTRIX machine it is
much faster.
$ copy SWSCIM::DISK$CIM2:[AD$PUBLIC]XMOSAIC-VMS-UCX.*.* *.*
$ backup XMOSAIC-VMS-UCX.BCK/save *.*
$ @xmosaic-setup
$ set display/create/node=<your workstation here>
$ xmosaic /home.html
OR, for a character cell interface :
$ copy TECO::SYS$PUBLIC:LYNX.* *.*
$ @LYNX
$ LYNX
There is also a guide to the internet available from the following
location
CONTRA::SYS$PUBLIC:EFF-BIG-DUMMY-GUIDE-TO-INTERNET.PS

around the firewall if you want to access the outside world though!

There is also a notesfile that covers this technology.
SOFBAS::INTERNET_TOOLS
You also need to have TCP/IP Network Protocol installed and configured
on your system before you can run Mosaic.
There are several other "areas" in Mosaic that might be of interest
to other Irish people, and I'll post pointers later today.

I copied this over, but my PostScript queue can't print it because it
doesn't seem to be able to interpret something.

The same reason why Digital doesn't advertise during major sporting
events in the US and prefers instead <sarcasm alert> to take out
obscure ads in magazines like Forbes and highly watched television
shows like MacNeil Lehrer Report.
I suppose we should thank god they didn't use "Flexware". And cheer
up - we have the Alpha Generation now! Groovy! Sounds like something
from the Brady Bunch.

several pages for the Belfast Telegraph Online. A little more diggiing
located the home page at http://nautilus.netcmi.co.uk/beltel/index.htm .
Looks interesting if you would like to see the news from a Northern Ireland
