They're actually ported to the BSDI BSD4.4, but they are binary compatible with FreeBSD. That's good enough for now, but at some point in the future BSDI and FreeBSD might diverge enough that they become incompatible, and as long as there is no Motif for FreeBSD, Mosaic (source available) cannot be compiled. Anybody know any neat X-windows http browsers out there, that don't rely on Motif? -- Richard Nickle rick@trystero.com http://www.trystero.com/rick.html
