65 How do I access docs in AMosaic NoNet mode?

    
The Amosaic NoNet version  can run in stand alone mode ( i.e. NO NETwork). This is
for testing purposes before you get your network connection.  In v1.2 or earlier
you are greeted with an error message instead of a document in this NoNet mode.

To see the local html files you must use the Open Local menu item and then choose
volumes.  You must go all the way to the list of volumes because this allows you
to build the file pointer from scratch. Choose the volume where Amosaic is stored
and then work your way  down to the docs/html directory. There should be a file
called index.html. Choose it and it should open. Once you open the index.html file
it has hypertext links to many of the other local html documents. It also has
remote links which obviously won't work in NoNet mode.

To make index.html your default or "home page" you can edit the
envarc:mosaic/prefs and set the HomeDocument variable. For example:

 HomeDocument file://localhost/SYS:Comms/Mosaic/HTML/index.html

The change will be active the next time you boot or To make it active copy the
envarc:mosaic/prefs to env:mosaic/prefs.
