The following environment variables are useable: XKEYSYMDB XNLSPATH Where XKEYSYMDB points to the XKeysymDB file inthe Netscape distribution and XNLSPATH is a colon separated list of possible locations for the nls directory. I'm not sure if it wants the path to the parent directory (i.e. /usr/local/Netscape) or the actual nls directory (i.e. /usr/local/Netscape/nls) so you could just include both. I have a script to start netscape that (re)sets these variables and then exec's netscape. I'm using Netscape2.0.2 precompiled ELF binaries. I hope that helps. By the way, has anybody run into a problem in 16 bit mode where netscape hangs the X session? It's happening to me, and I think I remember somebody else having that problem too. Any fixes?
