                         WORLDWIDEWEB DISTRIBUTED CODE
                                       
   See the CERN copyright[1] .  This is the README file which you get when you
   unwrap one of our tar files. These files contain information about
   hypertext, hypertext systems, and the WorldWideWeb project. If you have
   taken this with a .tar file, you will have only a subset of the files.
   
  WWWLineMode_v.vv.tar.Z
                          The Line mode browser - all source, and binaries for
                         selected systems.
                         
  WWWLineModeDefaults.tar.Z
                         A subset of WWWLineMode_v.vv.tar.Z. Basic
                         documentation, and our current home page.
                         
  WWWNextStepEditor.tar.Z
                         The Hypertext Browser/editor for the NeXT -- source
                         and binary.
                         
  WWWDaemon_v.vv.tar.Z    The HTTP daemon, and WWW-WAIS  gateway programs.
                         
  WWWBook.tar.Z           A snapshot of our internal documentation - we prefer
                         you to access this on line -- see warnings below.
                         
Directory structure

   The tar files are all designed to be unwrapped in the same (this) directory.
   They create different parts of a common directory tree under that directory.
   There may be some duplication.
   
NeXTStep Browser/Editor

   The browser for the NeXT is those files contained in the application
   directory WWW/Next/Implementation/WorldWideWeb.app and is compiled.
   
Line Mode browser

   The line Mode browser is in WWW/LineMode/Implementation/... (See
   Installation notes[2] )
   
    Subdirectories to that directory contain Makefiles for systems to which we
   have already ported.  If your system is not among them, make a new
   subdirectory with the system name, and copy the Makefile from an existing
   one. Change the directory names as needed. PLEASE INFORM US OF THE CHANGES
   WHEN YOU HAVE DONE THE PORT. This is a condidtion of  your use of this code,
   and will save others repeating your work, and save you repeating it in
   future releases.
   
    Whe you install the browsers,  you may want to to configure the default
   page. This is /usr/local/lib/WWW/default.html for the line mode browser, and
   .../WorldWideWeb.app/default.html for the NeXT browser. These must point to
   some useful information!  You should keep them up to date with pointers to
   info on your site and elsewhere. If you use the CERN home page note there is
   a link at the bottom to the master copy on our server.
   
    Some basic documentation on the browser is delivered with the home page in
   the directory WWW/LineMode/Defaults. A separate tar file of that directory
   (WWWLineModeDefaults.tar.Z) is available if you just want to update that.
   
    The rest of the documentation is in hypertext, and so wil be readable most
   easily with a browser:   We suggest that after installing the browser, you
   browse through the basic documentation so that you are aware of the options
