Compiling and Running ViolaWWW
==============================
To compile, type 'BUILD' to run the compilation script. If the compilation
process goes well, two executable program binaries will be generated
and they can be found in:
viola/src/viola/viola <-- the pure XLib version
viola/src/vw/vw <-- the Motif version
The 'viola' binary (in src/viola/viola) is the XLib-only version of
ViolaWWW. It is provided because not everyone has Motif. Also, this
binary version is smaller. However, the GUIs on the Motif version of
viola is still more polished. 'vw' (in src/vw/vw) is the ViolaWWW
with the Motif shell.
If you do not have Motif installed on your system, the 'vw' binary
will simply fail to build, but the production of the 'viola' binary
should not be affected.
This package requires X11R5, and the Motif version of ViolaWWW
requires a Motif toolkit library. The libwww(2.14) that comes with
ViolaWWW is modified, so until the changes are integrated into CERN's,
don't use the libwww that didn't come with viola.
I'd appreciate hearing about compilation success or horror stories
(and get patches) for platforms other than SunOS and Ultrix.
Installing ViolaWWW
===================
Both binaries can be installed anywhere in your path.
To ensure that the colors come out decent, insert the following
XWindows Resource into your "~/.Xdefaults" file.
------------------------------------------
Viola.x: 550
Viola.y: 10
Viola.width: 620
Viola.height: 700
#ifdef COLOR
Viola*foreground: black
Viola*background: grey80
Viola.foreground_doc: black
Viola.background_doc: grey90
#else
Viola*foreground: white
Viola*background: black
Viola*borderColor: white
#endif
------------------------------------------
Then do this to update the X resources, to let it take effect:
% xrdb -load ~/.Xresources
Running ViolaWWW
================
Both ViolaWWW programs can take the start up document URL as an argument,
thusly:
% viola [url]
% vw [url]
If you do not supply any argument, the default URL is taken from
the WWW_HOME environment variable. In liu of WWW_HOME, the fall back
URL is "http://berkeley.ora.com/proj/viola/violaHome.html"
Contact
=======
You can send mail to [email protected]. Feedbacks, bug reports, patches,
constructive criticisms, etc, are always welcome. Let me offer my
sincere apologies, in advance, in case I do not get back to you promptly--
I am the whole viola development team, and I do have other things
to attend to... but I will try to be prompt.
Acknowledgements
================
In particular, many thanks to: Tim Bernners-Lee for inventing the WWW;
Tim and the CERN crew for the libwww; All the contributors on www-talk etc;
Jon Blow (ORA) for the lexical analyzer used in viola; Scott Silvey (ORA)
for creating the Motif front-end; Terry Allen (ORA) for lots of testings
and help with SGML; Dale Dougherty and Tim O'Reilly for supporting the
work on viola at ORA.
Also, grateful thanks are extended to the brave beta testers, listed in
"http://xcf.berkeley.edu/ht/projects/viola/betaTesters.html".
