I am writing to say that Netscape Navigator 4.7 can be prevented
from stopping with the message

> netscape
no recognized font charsets!
>

by renaming $HOME/.netscape and starting navigoator.

The problem was evidently caused by Nav 4.7 not being able to cope with
the settings in this file used by an older version of navigator (3.04).

BTW in case it helps others, I found the aout compatibility libraries
in the Xaout.tgz of the XFree864 release. When unpacked in
/usr/lib/aout, they allow pkg_add to install navigator 4.7 and 4.72,
even though the FreeBSD 4.0 version of X is 3.3.6.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,
