NCSA Mosaic on GitHub
- jrockway 17y agoAh, C programs from the early nineties. I wonder which file has the most remotely-exploitable buffer overflows. (The source code is good reading nonetheless. I love the PUBLIC macro to declare public "methods" in libwww2. A little C++ jealousy, I guess.)

- tibbon 17y agoThis should come as a comfort to people who fear IE6 will never go away. Mosaic at one point was used by a majority of web users and look now- no one cares about compatibility. People moved on and it is no longer in current use and no one would expect that your site should display properly in it.
- Hoff 17y agoFar more nostalgic: NCSA Mosaic on OpenVMS running on a VAX, and that's feasible by running on the simh VAX emulator on your (Mac OS X, Linux, Windows) box. http://vaxa.wvnet.edu/vmswww/vms_mosaic.html http://vaxa.wvnet.edu/vmswww/vms_mosaic.html http://simh.trailing-edge.com/ http://simh.trailing-edge.com/ http://www.openvmshobbyist.org/ http://www.openvmshobbyist.org/ http://www.decuserve.org/ http://www.decuserve.org/ Total cost of this nostalgia is US$30 for the OpenVMS VAX CD. Mosaic, simh and the OpenVMS Hobbyist licenses are free.

- jasongullickson 17y agoThis is cool. Does anyone know if the code for Tim Berners Lee's NeXT browser is out there anywhere?
- jasongullickson 17y agoNevermind, found it: http://www.w3.org/History/1991-WWW-NeXT/Implementation/ http://www.w3.org/History/1991-WWW-NeXT/Implementation/
- kanwisher 17y agoAwesome bit of objective-c, still looks rather readable then C code from the era. Its to bad C++ won out over Objective-C
- sireat 17y agoNice, couldn't build it though on U9.10, at least x11-proto-print-dev does not exist there.
- wooby 17y agoWhoops, it's supposed to be x11proto-print-dev. I've updated the deps in the README, should build no problem on 9.10 now.
