Microsoft Windows and OS/2 ブラウザ

ノート:以下のブラウザはSLIPやPPPまたは、TCP/IPネットワーキングが必要です。 例外は、SlipKnotI-COMM,で、適当なインターネット接続なしで、 操作可能です。ただし一部機能が制限されますが。 SLIPやPPPは、電話線で確立します。これは、二通りのうちの一つを使い、ネットワーク プロバイダや教育機関でアサインされた適当なSLIPアカウントを用います。 Frank Hecker's guide to SLIP and PPP access; URL is <URL:http://access.digex.net/~hecker/> ; ), を見るか、 The Internet Adapter or SLiRP, を使い、 ダイヤルアップのUnixシェルアカウントを通じてSLIPをシュミレートします。 もしあなたが、Unixでないダイヤルアップのシェルアカウントしかもっておらず、 PCがなければ、最善の策は、 Lynxです。 VMS (または Unix, または...)システムならば、 telnetによりアクセス可能なブラウザ を試してみましょう.

Booklink can open many simultaneous connections in different windows and display images and pages progressively; at the time of this writing it is the only browser to equal Netscape in this area. The "lite" version can only open two simultaneous connections, however.
SlipKnot
SlipKnot is a graphical WWW browser that operates entirely without SLIP, PPP, an Ethernet connection, or special server-side software (but read the SLIP emulator section for another workaround). SlipKnot features the ability to automatically retrieve all documents linked to by the current document while the current document is being read. SlipKnot supports multiple fonts, inline images, forms, and review of documents you have already received while new documents arrive. SlipKnot can also download "nearby" documents in advance to save download time. Like I-COMM, SlipKnot operates entirely through a Unix shell account, not over TCP/IP. SlipKnot does not require that you install any new software on your Unix shell account. You can obtain SlipKnot by anonymous FTP from oak.oakland.edu in the directory SimTel/win3/internet. For more information, see the SlipKnot information page (URL is http://www.interport.net/slipknot/slipknot.html ) or send a blank email message to [email protected].
I-COMM
I-COMM, like SlipKnot, operates without a true TCP/IP connection. It requires a Unix shell account, like SlipKnot, or a VMS shell account, a feature unique to I-COMM. I-COMM also features Zmodem file transfers in both directions and complete support for forms. I-COMM is available for evaluation as shareware (URL is <URL:http://www.best.com/~icomm/icomm.htm> ).

Available by anonymous ftp from ftp.cs.indiana.edu in the directory pub/elisp/w3 .

UdiWWW
UdiWWW, unlike all other Windows browsers as of this writing, supports all of the proposed HTML 3.0 standard (except for <OVERLAY> and <MATH>) and also supports Netscape's various nonstandard extensions.

Emissary
Emissary, from Wollongong, is both a web browser and a concerted effort to integrate the Internet into the Windows environment (see <URL:http://www.twg.com> ).

Emissary supports several Netscape extensions, but lacks support for tables.
