MUNSIE on the WEB!
http://www.iadfw.net/munsie/index.html
To some of you the above line may look like
some cryptic code of some kind. But actually
it's the address that allows you and other
users around the world to log into our
"page" and get the latest information about
our products!
The WORLD WIDE WEB is available on the
INTERNET. And even though it's primarily
used by Mac or PC users, Atari users can
also access information on the WEB by using
something called "LYNX" software.
The WWW has the ability to display graphics,
sound, text styles, and just about anything
that involves multimedia. To view these
amazing items you really need what is called
a WEB BROWSER. Lucky for us, there are a few
browsers in development for us Atari users
right now! But in the meantime you can still
get onboard by using the "LYNX" software
mentioned above.
LYNX is available to be hooked into via on-line
services like GENIE and DELPHI but you will
need a VT100 emulator to use LYNX properly.
I've been using ANSITERM and it works great.
Some services like DELPHI also provide
straight ascii browsers that you can use
on-line. This is an excellent way to get
started immediately with the WEB.
When you log onto our page you can expect
the following items on-line!
* Download our latest software directly!
* Information about our new releases.
* Random ramblings from me!
* Links to other Atari WEB PAGES.
* Maybe a few reviews about other software.
We look forward to hearing from you.
