NCSA Mosaic for Microsoft Windows User's Guide
Hotlists can be organized by any criterion that helps you organize references: type of document, subject area, information source, frequency of use, etc. NCSA Mosaic is distributed from NCSA with several hotlists, including lists of Internet starting points, World Wide Web documents, home pages, and Gopher servers. You can create hotlists of your own, as well (see ``Using, Creating, and Editing Hotlists'').
Hotlists are available by selecting File...Open URL. The name of the current hotlist will appear in the Current Hotlist field at the bottom of the Open URL window. To select a different hotlist, click on the small arrow to the right of the Current Hotlist field and drag the cursor to select the desired hotlist.
The documents named in the hotlist will then be available from either of the top fields in the dialog box. You can select a document by its URL from the left-hand field or by its title from the right-hand field. In either case, click on the arrow to the right of the field and drag the cursor to select the desired document. Click on OK to display it.
Each hotlist entry contains the document or data file's URL. Hotlist entries may also include the title of an HTML document or a description of a data file or service.
A document can be added to any hotlist any time that it is displayed. Just make sure the current hotlist is the one you want the document to appear on, then select Navigate ... Add Current To Hotlist.
Note that the NCSA Mosaic hotlists include the Quicklist and the user-configurable menus and submenus. The Quicklist and selected user-configurable menus and submenus are distributed with NCSA Mosaic, though all can be changed at will. Since they can be added, deleted, or changed by anyone, including other users or system administrators at your site, the user-configurable menus and submenus on your copy of NCSA Mosaic may differ from those discussed in this guide.
