Hi peoples, I have a question which has been plaguing me for a while, I've searched for the answer everywhere I know to look, but no results. I don't have a freebsd system installed at home - yet, because I need windows for university. As soon as this semester is over, I am going to install it. So as not to lose too much learning time, I still participate in these newsgroups and read on-line documentation and unix related textbooks. My question is: If one was to download and install netscape communicator/navigator on their system, and ran it from a terminal that was not a X-Windows one, what would happen? I know that the standard terminals support a mouse, so would it just open up in fll screen mode in a terminal, or would it try and run x, and failing that (if it was not installed) give an error message? Oh, and say it did open without needing X-Windows, how would i open up multiple windows of netscape. I'm assuming one in each tty, but then how would I know what page I was up to on which? Many thanks, this is BUGGING me!! kremlin vostok To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
