1.     INTRODUCTION
-------------------

       1.1     Description & Purpose
       -----------------------------
       WebCache is used with Netscape Navigator ver. 2.0/3.0 as an utility
       for off-line browsing. When activated it will make CACHE.HTM Web
       page. This page lists all http, gopher and ftp addresses of files
       which exist in local cache.

       While Navigator also saves last 10 addresses, here the number of
       addresses is unlimited. CACHE.HTM list may also be used while
       surfing on-line (when connected to Internet). Pages displayed from
       cache may be named and saved using Navigator File/Save As option.


       1.2     Hardware & other requirements
       -------------------------------------
       IBM-PC 386 or better running Windows 3.10, 3.11 or Windows 95
       and Netscape Navigator ver. 2.0x or 3.0.


       1.3     Installation Guide
       ---------------------------

       Win 3.1x Installation
       ---------------------
       First unzip distribution file webca100.zip to any directory. Then
       copy WEBCACHE.EXE and WEBCACHE.TXT to Navigator main directory
       (this is directory which contains CACHE subdirectory, usually
       named \NETSCAPE). Do this using File manager.

       In Windows 3.1x program manager click on Netscape group to open it.
       Make File manager window small to be able to see Netscape group.
       Then Drag and Drop WEBCACHE.EXE and WEBCACHE.TXT from File manager
       file list to Netscape group.

       Alternatively, you may use Program manager File/New/Program_Item to
       add this program to Netscape group. In Command_line type WEBCACHE.EXE
       followed by space + additional options, see below,  for example:
                "c:\netscape\webcache.exe /n".
       As working directory type-in Navigator main directory name, for example:
                "c:\netscape".

       Win 95 Installation
       -------------------
       First unzip distribution file webca100.zip to any directory. Then
       copy WEBCACHE.EXE and WEBCACHE.TXT to Navigator main directory
       (this is directory which contains CACHE subdirectory, usually
       named \NETSCAPE\NAVIGATOR). Do this using Explorer.
       Then Drag and Drop WEBCACHE.EXE and WEBCACHE.TXT from Explorer
       file list to Desktop main screen to create shortcuts, or add those
       files to Navigator group.


2.     USING THE PROGRAM
-------------------------
       Run WebCache before you want to browse pages off-line. Then run
       Netscape Navigator. In Navigator use File/ Open file to view
       CACHE.HTM file. Then click on desired address, then you may click
       further on colored (visited) addresses. Return to CACHE.HTM file
       using menu: Go/* Local cache *. You may wish to add this file to 
       bookmarks to access it as any other location.

       To avoid messages saying that connection is not
       established, change Navigator NETWORK PREFERENCES. Option should be:

       - CACHE/ Verify documents: NEVER

       When you want to use Navigator on-line again, restore this option
       to what it was before. Set large Cache size (5 or 10 MBytes).

       Running WebCache /? gives list of available options:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

WEBCACHE, ver. 1.00, (c) by Davor Zorc, Zagreb, Croatia, 1996. /? = HELP
Finds http, gopher, ftp addresses in NETSCAPE cache, makes Html page.
This way you may browse off-line all pages from the local cache.

Set Navigator NETWORK PREFERENCES:  Cache/Verify documents= NEVER
** Copy this file to Netscape root directory **

  usage:     WEBCACHE    [/options]
  options:   p= add picture addresses   n= no URL listing

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

       Use p options if you wish to have .gif and .jpg pictures listed
       in CACHE.HTM (Those pictures are already specified in html pages).

       Option n skips listing of addresses and speeds-up program execution.

       2.1     Limitations
       -------------------
       If there are more than 500 addresses extracted, or if length of an
       address is longer than 120 characters then address checking for
       duplicates and address sorting is skipped (for those addresses).
       Those addresses appear on top of the listing.

       2.2     What if it does not work?
       ---------------------------------
       - maybe the cache is empty or size is set to zero.
       - make sure WEBCACHE.EXE is in Navigator main directory.
       - make sure Navigator main directory has subdirectory named CACHE,
         in Navigator check this in: Network preferences/Cache menu.
       - new Navigator version should be installed over old one in same
         directory.
       - Working directory for Webcache should be correctly declared in
         Program manager.
       - Try "Clear disk cache" button in Network preferences/Cache menu to
         start new cache.
