Description

This article is from the Yolo County FAQ, by David F. Prenatt, Jr. with numerous contributions by others.

5.2.2.4) How do I access the World Wide Web?

You can access the World Wide Web by using a text-based program, such
as "lynx," or by using a "web browser," such as "Netscape." Access
to the multi-media features of various web sites (i.e., pictures and
sound) is the biggest advantage of using Netscape.

5.2.2.4.1) How do I use lynx?

Simply type in "lynx" (without the quotes) at the Unix prompt and
follow the instructions that you find on the screen.

5.2.2.4.2) How do I use Netscape?

Netscape is easy to use and has many exciting and revolutionary multi-
media/multi-protocol features, but you will probably need help from
someone who knows what he or she is doing to learn how to use
Netscape. Visit the Netscape Home Page on the World Wide Web for more
information (<http://home.netscape.com/ >).
