VMS Mosaic 4.2

[Zane Healy]

When was v4.2 released, and would it have made it onto one of the Freeware CD’s?  It looks like 4.0 is probably newer than I’d have bothered downloading.  By then I think I was mainly using Lynx when I needed a browser on VMS.

It’s not in the home directory on my VMS cluster, I’ll take a further look once I sort out some unrelated computer issues I’m dealing with.
