[This is a regular posting to C++ discussion groups - usually posted
monthly, but there have been too many updates lately...]
New items since last posting [Nov 12 '93] ordered by time of update:
....................................................................
* Comparing Eiffel with C++ ["Getting Start(l)ed" page]
* Planned GNA Internet Course on C++ [front page]
* Newsgroups: FAQ for hepnet.lang.c++ ["Newsgroups" page]
* Many interesting papers on GUIs and C++ Library building ["Packages"]
* Booklist updated ["Getting Start(l)ed" page]
* STING service from CERN [front page]
* wxWindows--GUI C++ toolkit with *beautiful* HTML doc ["Packages"]
* TeX2RFT--a LaTeX to RTF/WinHelp RTF/HTML converter ["Packages"]
* OO Graphics Survey from Leeds [front page]
* This hierarchy entered the W3catalog!
* STING glossary of SE terms [front page]
* New, enhanced cc-mode (beta) for Emacs/Epoch/Lemacs ["Editing" page]
* Book list for de.comp.lang.c++ [in German, "Getting Start(l)ed" page]
* C++ Products List and Description (v2.05) [front page]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* C++ on the World Wide Web
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
FYI, there is a wealth of information on C++ available on the World Wide
Web [WWW], a distributed HyperText system (a network of documents
connected by links which can be activated electronically).
Especially for readers of hepnet.lang.c++, the link "Newsgroups" leads
to an edited list of messages from hepnet.lang.c++, archived at the freeHEP
information server and the FAQ for this group.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* How to Get to the Web
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have a WWW browser up and running, try going to
http://info.desy.de/general/users.html
and look for "C++" in the panel which appears. The precise URL is
http://info.desy.de/user/projects/C++.html
If you have no clue what WWW is, you can go over the Internet with
telnet info.cern.ch
which brings you to the WWW Home Page at CERN. You are now using the
simple line mode browser. To move around the Web, enter the number
given after an item. To go to the C++ documents, enter
go http://info.desy.de/user/projects/C++.html
This is what you should see now:

* More on Browsing the Web
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A very nice way of "browsing" through WWW uses X-browsers like "tkWWW" or
"NCSA Mosaic". For the latter, binaries for many platforms (ready for use)
and sources are available via anonymous FTP from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu in
directory Web/Mosaic-binaries.
The general FTP repository for browser software is info.cern.ch
(including a hypertext browser/editor for NeXTStep 3.0).
If you cannot go through TELNET, you can still retrieve WWW
documents by e-mail: send a mail to listserv@info.cern.ch with a
line in it saying just
HELP
to get back detailed instructions. Your mail system must have a
mail gateway to the internet mail.
