=head1 NAME
mosaic-ck - updated, unsupported fork of the ancient and venerable NCSA Mosaic web browser
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<mosaic-ck> [-mono] [-color] [-nd] [-geometry I<geom>] [-display I<disp>] [-install] [-iconic] [I<url>]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Mosaic is widely considered the grandfather of the modern web
browser. Developed at NCSA, it was the first Web browser to win widespread
use and acceptance. The last release of Mosaic was in 1997.
mosaic-ck is a fork of Mosaic, with several features that allow it
to work as a basic, no-frills browser on the modern WWW. Think of it
as "lynx with images". There is no support for cookies, SSL, Java,
Javascript, Flash, stylesheets, or frames. Table support is optional
(and doesn't work well). Unicode/UTF-8 is partially supported.
=head1 OPTIONS
Unknown options are ignored. If more than one URL is given, only the first is used.
=over
=item -mono
Starts in monochrome mode. Doesn't seem to actually work.
=item -color
Starts in color mode. This is the default anyway.
=item -nd
No defaults: don't use existing X resources. See I<README.resources.html>.
=item -geometry I<geom>
Starting position and size of window. I<geom> is a standard X geometry
specifier, e.g. B<640x480+0+0>.
=item -display I<disp>
Connect to specified X display. Default is to use the B<DISPLAY> option in
the environment.
=item -install
Install own colormap. Obsolete unless you're using an X server with 256 or
fewer colors.
=item -iconic
Start the application minimized.
=back
=head1 FILES
=over
=item /etc/X11/app-defaults/Mosaic
Default X resources, for specifying options like fonts and default window geometry.
Can be overridden by the user's B<~/.Xdefaults> or B<~/.Xresources>.
If this file doesn't exist, built-in defaults are used instead.
=item ~/.mosaic
Preferences, history, annotations, etc are saved here. May also contain these
optional config files:
=over
=item mosaic-imageselect-sites
Optional rules for whether to immediately load, delay loading, or not load images
from particular sites. Might be useful for ad blocking.
=item mosaic-spoof-agents
List of options for the B<Options> -> B<Agent Spoofs> sub-menu.
=item mosaic-user-defs
Used to define custom actions. Example contents of this file might be:
Google Search
GET:http://google.com/search?q=__string__
To use, highlight some text, then right-click and select B<User> -> B<Google Search>.
=back
See /usr/doc/mosaic-ck-@VERSION@/sample_dotfiles for commented examples of
