The errors are: I don't know for sure, but if it is working under appletviewer, I agree that it is _probably_ something in the way you have things set up. Are you sure you have a CLASSPATH set in the environment from which you are starting netscape? > (c) You've got to compile things in a certain order (you sure get > spoiled fast by gnat).

After that you can compile things in any order. You really shouldn't need a Makefile. > I'm reporting this here because: > (a) I swear I couldn't find a "report bugs to" address in any of the > documentation or on the webpage. In small print in the release notes file, it says to report problems to stt@inmet.com or maclaren@inmet.com. CLA is probably _not_ the best place for these. > (b) Applet Magic is a bloody miracle.
