There is a binary of Mosaic somewhere (can't remember offhand...) but it is DOG SLOW on a 68030 sans FPU. Chimera (available from a UNLV ftp - sorry, can't remember the address) is pretty quick. There's also a precompiled version of Arena around (again, sorry, but my memory for urls is really short) but it seemed really buggy when I tried it. >I don't know to much about compileing & crossplatform workings. If you haven't subscribed to the mailing lists yet, you should. These issues are addressed a lot. J.
