Get it via anonymous ftp from host ftp.xemacs.org in +the /pub/infodock directory. + +It is a standard part of the forthcoming XEmacs 19.12 release. The Free +Software Foundation also intends to add it to GNU Emacs. + +The OO-Browser is also available as a standalone package via anonymous ftp +across the Internet. Do not send requests to have it mailed to you since it +won't be. Instead have another party who has Internet access obtain it for +the both of you. + +Here is how to obtain it: + +Move to a directory below which you want the 'oobr' directory to +be created.
