14 The OO-Browser is actually part of an integrated tool framework that we have
15 developed called InfoDock. InfoDock provides a modern user interface on top
16 of Emacs, information management, and powerful software development tools,
17 all in one package. Get it via anonymous ftp from host ftp.xemacs.org in
18 the /pub/infodock directory.
19
20 It is a standard part of the forthcoming XEmacs 19.12 release. The Free
21 Software Foundation also intends to add it to GNU Emacs.
22
23 The OO-Browser is also available as a standalone package via anonymous ftp
24 across the Internet. Do not send requests to have it mailed to you since it
25 won't be. Instead have another party who has Internet access obtain it for
26 the both of you.
27
28 Here is how to obtain it:
29
30 Move to a directory below which you want the 'oobr' directory to
31 be created. Unpacking the OO-Browser archive will create this
32 directory and place all of the files below it.
33
34 cd <LOCAL-LISP-DIR>
35
36 Ftp to ftp.xemacs.org (Internet Host ID = 128.174.252.16):
37
38 prompt> ftp ftp.xemacs.org
39
40 Login as 'anonymous' with your own <user-id>@<site-name> as a password.
41
42 Name (ftp.xemacs.org): anonymous
43 331 Guest login ok, send EMAIL address (e.g. user@host.domain) as password.
44 Password:
45 230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
46
47 Move to the directory where the OO-Browser is kept:
48
49 ftp> cd /pub/infodock
50
51 Set your transfer mode to binary:
52
53 ftp> bin
54 200 Type set to I.
55
56 Turn off prompting:
57
58 ftp> prompt
59 Interactive mode off.
60
61 Retrieve the OO-Browser archive and any diff-based patches:
62
63 ftp> mget oobr*
64
65 Close the ftp connection:
66
67 ftp> quit
68 221 Goodbye.
69
70 Unpack the tar archive with:
71
72 gunzip oobr*gz; tar xvf oobr*tar
73
74 Apply any patch/diff files with:
75
76 cd oobr; patch < <patch-file>
77
78 Read the "BR-README" file for installation directions and pointers to other
79 documents.
