Source code of original Netscape Navigator

browseropensource-projectssource

Where is it possible to download the source code of the first open source browser Netscape Navigator released in about 1998?

I already searched for it and wasn't able to find the original version of this browser from 1998.

Best Answer

Google mozilla source code 1998 found Downloading Source Archives - Mozilla Developer Network which lists a URL pattern to the Mozilla FTP server. Going by that I quickly found what appears to be the original release of the Mozilla source code, with file dates around Q2 1998.

Fedora – find the source code for `uptime`

Uptime is part of the 'procps' package, the upstream source is at http://procps.sourceforge.net/ (Not a fedora user, so not sure where to find their .src.rpm).

To answer the question you didn't ask, however; take a look in /proc/uptime The first number is seconds since boot. You should be able to turn that into something usable fairly easily :)

Grep Source Code – How to Grep Without Catching Comments

You can try a naive approach to match non-comments like this:

 $ egrep -v "^(//|/\*| \*)" sourcecode

This will only inverse match against prefixed comments - that is lines starting with either //, /*, * or */ - and hence it'll not leave out blocks that are commented out with the /* and */ pair.
