While this helps, it doesn't address all issues, particularly WRT font sizing. Many websites render fonts which are simply too small to be easily read under NS/Linux. To fix this, and some related Netscape brain damage, create a file /etc/X11/Xresources/netscape, with the following lines: # Restrict the range of size increments allowed by <font size=n> # directives to # the range 80% - 120% rather than 50% - 210%. Default increment is 20. # KMSelf Wed Dec 29 15:47:57 PST 1999 Netscape*documentFonts.sizeIncrement: 05 # Clean up the fscking toolbar Netscape*toolBar.search.isEnabled: false Netscape*toolBar.destinations.isEnabled: false Netscape*toolBar.myshopping.isEnabled: false Netscape*toolBar.viewSecurity.isEnabled: false Netscape*toolBar.print.isEnabled: true Netscape*toolBar.home.isEnabled: true # And some other brain damage Netscape*useStdoutDialog: false Netscape*useStderrDialog: false Netscape*noAboutSplash: true # Fonts -- dialogs and such Netscape*attachmentProps*XmLabelGadget.fontList: fixed Netscape*AddressBook*mainform.fontList: fixed Netscape*XmLGrid*fontList: fixed Netscape*attachItemLabel*fontList: fixed Netscape*prefs*fontList: fixed Netscape*statusBar*fontList: fixed # Document fonts -- scaling doesn't appear to take effect w/ TTF fonts Netscape*documentFonts.defaultFont*iso-8859-1.prop: -ttf-garamond-120-noscale Netscape*documentFonts.defaultFont*iso-8859-1.fixed: -ttf-courier new-90-noscale ...the file is modified from /usr/lib/netscape/461/netscape/Netscape.ad -- Karsten M.
