37. How can I view Hangul world wide web (WWW) pages on Mac?
Under Hangul-capable environment for each platform as summarized below and
dealt with in depth above, you should have little problem viewing Hangul Web
pages in and outside Korea. Sparcs Home page has another guide of Hangul in
WWW. WWW-KR has made an excellent introductory book on the web, "Gaja, Web-u
Soe-gye-ro" available in Postscript and HLaTeX at CAIR archive.
o Netscape/MS IE under Mac OS 8.5 with Multilingual Internet Access kit
(available free on Mac OS 8.5 CD) installed.
o Any Web browsers(including CyberDoc) for Mac under Hangul Talk
o Any Web browsers for Mac(including CyberDoc) under Korean Language Kit.
. Old version of Netscape (for reading Usenet News in Hangul. Other than
that, it doesn't need patch) and NCSA Mosaic need a little patch(using
Resource Editor for Hangul). See Hangul and Mosaic and refer to Mac
Hangul archive for Netscape patch.
o Netscape under non-Korean Mac OS 7.5.x or later with World Script II
extension + Munhwabu fonts (See Subject 5 for Munhwabu fonts). You need
NOT have Korean Language Kit. This way, you can't input Hangul, but
viewing Hangul web page works fine. [Contribution by Dennis Hanks at
dehanks@worldzusson.com]
o Any Web browsers for Mac with Han Korean Kit(Hantorie)
o Netscape 3.x and 4.x with Elixir in non-Korean environment. See Subject 5
for Elixir.
o Hangul-transparent(capable) terminal emulators such as
TeleGraphic,TeleTalk,Hangul patched ZTerm under any of two Hangul-capable
environments above to run text browsers(e.g. Lynx) on a remost host
connected to a local machine via serial/dial-up link. See Subject 2)
o Hangul-transparent(capable) telnet client like hangul patched NCSA
Telnet,MacBlueTelnet(it also wors stand-alone without system wide support
of Hangul i/o) under any of two Hangul-capable environments above
o Unix version of Netscape(and other graphic web browsers) to be run as a
client on a remote host for any X-server with Hangul fonts(See Subject 6)
for free Hangul fonts for X window and a list of X servers for Mac OS
including one free server)
o Hanterm to be run as a client on a remote host for any X-server with
Hangul fonts under Mac to use text browsers like Lynx. See Subject 2)
about this method
o Hangul-capable-Emacs in W3 mode to be run as a client on a remote host
for any X-server with Hangul fonts on a local Mac.
To display Hangul in Netscape 2.0,3.0 or 4.0, you just have to follow these
simple recipes.
1. Install one of following Hangul solutions. Details about these are in
Subject 5.
o Multilingual Internet Access Kit(free) in Mac OS 8.5
o Korean Language Kit
o Hangul Mac OS
o PanAsian Kit
o Han Korean Kit(Refer to HKK home page mentioend in Subject 5 for more
information).
o Mac OS 7.5.x and World Script II extension(optional item found on Mac
OS CD-ROM and Apple Archive) + Munhwabu fonts. In Mac OS 8, WS II
extension seems to be installed by default. (display ONLY, NO input)
2. In Options, set Document Encoding(in Netscape 4.0, it's under View Menu.
In NS 4.5, it's called Character Set) to Korean(Auto Detect). Optionally,
you may make it as default with 'Set As Default' menu item.
3. In Options|General Preference|Font menu(in Netscape 4.0,
Edit|Preference|Appearance|Font), set fonts to use for Korean encoding to
Korean fonts(Hanyang Myungjo,Hanyang Dung-gun gothic,
ShinMyungjo,Munhwa,Tonshing,etc) mentioned in Subject 5.
Electronic Hangul may or may not be used as underlying system for Hangul web
browsing. Its unique one-byte code requires code conversion from KSC-5601
used in virtually all Hangul web sites and different patch(or original web
browsers with no patch are likely to work) other than mentioned above may be
needed.
Korean version(with all menus in Hangul) of Netscape for Mac will be
released soon although it's not yet available as of May 10th. See
http://home.netscape.com/ko for update in Hangul.
WorldScript savvy web authoring tools work fine under Hangul Mac OS,
non-Korean Mac OS + KLK or PanAsianKit. Among them are PageSpinner and
Golive CyberStudio(www.golive.com). [posted to han.sys.mac by Gil, Hojin at
hojing@concentric.net] funkymix@nownuri.net recommended VisualPage for 68k
Mac and GoliveCyberStudio for PPC Mac.
