+mosaic-ck (Cameron Kaiser's fork of NCSA Mosaic)
+
+Mosaic is widely considered the grandfather of the modern web
+browser. Developed at NCSA, it was the first Web browser to win widespread
+use and acceptance. The last release of Mosaic was in 1997.
+
+mosaic-ck is a fork of Mosaic, with several features that allow it
+to work as a basic, no-frills browser on the modern WWW. Think of it
+as "lynx with images". There is no support for cookies, SSL, Java,
+Javascript, Flash, stylesheets, or frames. Table support is optional
+(and doesn't work well). Unicode/UTF-8 is partially supported.
+
+NOTE: Downloading source via wget is not supported. You must download it
+manually using browser.
