Compilation on most platforms is done using the BUILD script which figures out what platform you are using. However, there are special instructions for installation on VMS and Windows NT.
If you have build earlier versions of the W3C software and you already
have a WWW
directory then it is very important
that you do the following:
cd WWW make clobber ./BUILD linemodein order to make sure that all new code is built. If not then go to newly-created
WWW
directory, and type:
./BUILD linemodeIf you encounter problems during compilation or your don't have the compiler which the BUILD script uses then then please read the section on how to modify the BUILD script.
The executable browser, "www" appears in the directory
../WWW/LineMode/<your.platform>As an example, in case your platform is SunOs, the directory is "sun4".
You must now check that the default homepage works, and customize it if it is not what you want. The default home page just a place to start.
