Only version 3.1 has been tested.
Approx 230K or memory.
This requirement increases with the size of the page loaded,
and does not include Fetchers and the TCP/IP stack.
TCPIP of Some form. (If you require internet access)
Fetchers are supplied for !TCPIP (Also known as KA9Q)

Not much required. Just Run. Fetcher setup can be found in the

The filetype used for HTML is currently &FAF. If this clashes with a
file type you have allocated for something else, you are stuck! (Note

TIPS
----
1. Exported DrawFiles look terrible because the background hint for
the text is 'black', although The value written by webster is for
'white'. As a temporary fix for this you should load the file into
!Draw, Do 'Select All' (^A) and set the Background Colour to 'White'
2. Do you get a 'Font System.Fixed Not Found' error. Try deleting the
'Fonts' file from Webster's Choices directory. This makes Webster use
internal defaults that specify the Fonts in the RISC OS 3 ROMs.
3. You can carry forward all the files in your 'Choices' Directory
between versions of Webster unless otherwise stated in the release
note.
