Welcome to the libwww! You have just unpacked one of our distribution files
and can find the contents in the w3c-libwww-x.x directory where
x.x indicates the version. Please read the
README file in this directory for details on how
to go on from here. The README file gives you information about what each
distribution file contains and what you need in order to compile and build
one or more of the applications. You can find the complete W3C software
distribution at
http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Distribution.html
All our software distribution packages contain documentation written in HTML. You can therefore use your favorite browser to browse through the documentation locally so that you do not need to use the network. Please read the README file in each of the application directories in order to find the top page of the documentation for each module. For example, the README file for the W3C Sample Code Library can be found in
w3c-libwww-x.x/Library/README
If you do not have a browser then please continue and build the Line Mode Browser (www) which you can find in the directory
w3c-libwww-x.x/LineMode
If you can not find this directory then please download the Line Mode Browser distribution file from
http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/LineMode/
or by using anonymous FTP to
ftp.w3.org. When the Line
Mode Browser is built then you can use this application to browse through
the documentation.
If you encounter problems or would like to feed back suggestions, good ideas etc. then please send a mail to libwww@w3.org noting the version of the distribution files that you are using.
