A
World-Wide-Web
Browser
Package for the
ST is Available
Now for
FREE!
A new world-wide-web browser
package is now available for the
Atari ST! Download it for free
from ftp://ftp.toad.net/pub/atarist/internet/www_latest.zip.
This package consists of three parts which will allow you
to browse the web and even participate in IRC.
• The CAB, by Alexander Clauss (Germany). This will be
considered the main program by most people.
• STiK, by Steve Adam (Australia). This actually does the
low-level networking stuff to the Internet.
• CAB.OVL, by Tim Newsome (USA). This is the missing
link between the parser and STiK.
If you aren’t able to download the browser from our ftp
site, as a service we offer it on disk for just $10.00! Or,
ask a friend to download it for you.
Right now, the browser requires a SLIP account with a
local Internet service provider, but PPP and CSLIP support
are coming soon! Watch our home page for details!
