Once installed AMosaic will open on the WorkBench, using the Prefs
program for MUI you can have it open on it's own screen with more than the
eight colors associated with MWB. Here's how:
1> Open a Shell and run Mosaic and then Quit it and close the Shell, this
enters Mosaic into the MUI Prefs list.
2> Run the MUI Prefs prog 2.x/ 3.x, click on the popup gadget to the
right of <<Global>>, find the entry 'AmigaMosaic' and double click on it.
This should put it in the top window.
3> Select the 'System Page' from the cycle gadget and click on the popup
gadget for 'Public Screen'. Select 'New' from the bottom of the popup window,
and then 'Edit'. (Alternatively press 'p' then 'n' and lastly 'e') The 'Edit
window will be displayed.
4> Enter 'AMosaic' in both 'Public Screen' and 'Public Name' in the
'Attributes' page, also tick 'Interleaved' in the Flag section below.
5> Select the 'Display Mode' page and enter the Screen size and number of
colors you want for Mosaic.
6> Click on Okay. You should now have AmigaMosaic displayed in the top window
and AMosaic displayed in the 'Public Screen' window.
7> Click on the cycle-gadget for 'Window refresh' until 'Simple' is displayed.
8> Click on the cycle-gadget for 'Redraw' until 'fast/ugly' is displayed.
9> Prefs should now appear like this 2.x/ 3.x.
9> Click on 'Save' at the bottom of the Prefs window.
10> Finally the Mailcap needs editing. Open a Shell and type 'cd
envarc:mosaic' hit <RET> and then type 'ed mailcap'. This will run your
editor and load in the mailcap file. Wherever you see 'PUBSCREEN' you will
see it followed by 'Mosaic'. Change 'Mosaic' to 'AMosaic' (or whatever you
have called your Mosaic Screen!).
11> Once all done, save the file and re-boot your Amiga.
12> TEST it! open a Shell cd to the directory where Mosaic is and type
'Mosaic'. The screen should flick to a new screen called AMosaic and mosaic
will be displayed showing an error that the default page could not be found.
This is normal do NOT worry, have kittens etc.
