Running UnixWare 7 Netscape products

Accessing Netscape documentation

To access Netscape online documentation, use SCOhelp (or your existing Netscape browser). For information on starting SCOhelp, see ``Getting help''. To use your existing Netscape browser, open:

http://localhost:457

Select Internet and Intranet, then Netscape.

Online documentation is also available at the SCO Internet Family Documentation page, http://www2.sco.com:1996/inethome.html.

To access printable PostScript® images of books for the software on the UnixWare 7 Optional Services CD-ROM:

  1. Download and install the gzip utility.

  2. Download the files from the SCO web page:

    http://www.sco.com/documentation/postscript/

    Sub-directories for each product and book title contain the gzipped PostScript files.

  3. Change to the download directory. For example,

    cd /tmp

  4. Uncompress and print the files:

    /usr/bin/gunzip * | lp -opost -dprintername *

    Substitute the name of a PostScript printer for printername and, if necessary, change the -opost option depending on your printer model script.

To order printed Netscape documentation:

  1. Visit the Netscape home page at http://home.netscape.com.

  2. Click on Netscape Store, then Bookstore & Courses.

Downloading gzip

The PostScript books on the WWW are distributed in gzip (.gz) compressed format. You must use gunzip to uncompress these files. To download and install the gunzip utility:

  1. Point your browser at:

    http://www.sco.com/documentation/postscript/bin/gunzip_uw7.tar

    Download gunzip_uw7.tar to a temporary directory.

  2. Enter:

    tar xvf gunzip_uw7.tar

    This extracts the gunzip binary into the /usr/bin directory.

To download the entire gzip package from Skunkware:

  1. Point your browser at:

    http://www.sco.com/skunkware/uw7/shellutil/gzip/

  2. Download gzip.pkg to a temporary directory, such as /tmp.

  3. Use pkgadd(1M) to install the package:

    pkgadd -d /tmp/gzip.pkg
