- All right...its the moment you've all been waiting for...the beta version of
- WebView 2.1i. The 'i' stands for "internet", because now you can get on the
- 'Net with this version of WebView.
-
- I really shouldn't have to write a long winded manual (I don't want to
- either...). Here is what you have to do to install it...
-
- 1. Run the LibInstall program
- 2. Edit the Preferences File
-
- Editing the preferences file is easy. Its put into Envarc:webview.prefs.
- You just need a text editor (Ed will be fine). Here is what it'll look
- like, and what you put in where...
-
- WebHead.font/32
- WebHead.font/24
- WebHead.font/21
- WebHead.font/17
- WebHead.font/15
- WebHead.font/12
- Webtext.font/15
- Webfixed.font/15
- WHITE
- BLACK
- RED
- LACED

- The first eight lines are the WebCleaner fonts, done by Andrew Graham. You can
- change these to any fonts you wish, in the format <fontname>.font/size. The
- next three are Default Paper color, Text color, and Link color. Then, if the
- next line is LACED, WebView will be interlaced. DON'T DO THIS ON OS3.1! The
- next line is the Start Page, then SMTP server, SMTP Domain, and EMail address.
- The last two are Cache Drawer and (not working yet) Default Save Drawer.
-
- Why no snazzy interface? I have one done, its just that the driver for
- Intuition Interfaces for Amos doesn't like it too well. Its really good,
- though. When it works.
-
- Then, just start up WebView. You don't need to be connected to the 'Net to use
- it...remember, it used to be an offline page viewer. The buttons and areas on
- the screen are easy:
-
- Title Bar Moves WebView back and Intuition forward
- Buttons:
- First Load a Local Page
- Second Reload the Current Page
- Third Quit WebView
- Fourth Access History/Cache Pages
- Fifth Save current page
- Memory Gauges Type in a destination address
- Slider on the
- Right Look up/down page
- Zoom Gad on
- Bottom Change to non/interlaced
-
- If you do want to get on the 'Net, though, I'd be careful. WebView is buggy
- buggy buggy when on the 'Net. Forms work, though. That's good. Well, enjoy!
- And, if you do want to tell me your $.02 about WebView, write me at
- uv334@freenet.victoria.bc.ca. Bye!
