your system. Contact your OS vendor 
to obtain the fonts and instructions on how to install them if necessary.
<p>
<a name="FontPropertiesFile"></a>
Once the fonts are installed on your system, you need to customize the 
font.properties file in your Java Runtime Environment (which is included as
part of the HotJava Browser) to include information about the new fonts. 
You may need to contact your system administrator or Java developer at 
your site to help out. 
<p>
To make the Java Runtime Environment recognize additional fonts, you need to edit 
the file &lt;<i>hotjava_install_dir</i>&gt;/runtime/lib/font.properties.&lt;<i>your-locale</i>&gt; to
include the appropriate information to describe the new fonts. The Java Runtime 
Environment ships with a sample of commonly used font.properties files for various 
locales. You can look in these sample files to find out what you need to add
to your font.properties file for those locales. For more information, see the
Java documentation on 
<a href="http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/guide/intl/fontprop.html">
Adding Fonts to the Java Runtime</a>.

<dt><b><a name="ShowTags">Show Tags</a></b>
<dd>Toggles the display of the HTML tags used on the <i>current</i> page. 
This is a convenient way to graphically see how the HTML page is laid out, 
and is most useful for people developing an HTML page.
<p>
When you move to another page, the Show Tags setting changes to the state
it was in the last time that page was displayed (typically Off). 
When you display a page for the first time, Show Tags is always initially
set to Off. 

<dt><b><a name=delay.applets>Delay Loading Applets</a></b>
<dd>Select this option if you don't want the HotJava Browser to automatically 
load all applets on a page as it loads the page. You might choose this option 
to improve the loading time of a page with a lot of applets, or a page
with an applet you're not interested in seeing. 
<p>
When Delay Loading Applets is selected, you'll see the following icon in 
place of an unloaded applet:
<p>
<a name="UnloadedApplet"><img src="../lib/images/applet-delayed.gif"> Unloaded Applet icon</a>
<p>
The size of the icon shows how large the applet will be when it's loaded.
Click on the icon whenever you want to load an applet. Watch the message area
or the Progress Monitor to get feedback on the progress of the applet loading.
<p>
If you have Delay Loading Applets selected, and you'd like to load all the
applets on a page at once, unselect the Delay Loading Applets option and 
<a href="#reload">reload</a> the page.
<p>
If the Delay Loading Applets menu item is disabled, the HotJava Browser is 
running short on <a href="#memory">memory</a>. 

<dt><b><a name=delay.images>Delay Loading Images</a></b>
<dd>Like Delay Loading Applets, choose this option if you don't want to 
automatically load all images on a page. Choose this option to improve 
the loading time of a page with a lot of images, or pages with images 
you're not interested in seeing. 
<p> 
When Delay Loading Images is selected, you'll see the following icon in place 
of every unloaded image: 
<p> 
<a name="UnloadedImage"><img src="../lib/images/image-delayed.gif"> Unloaded Image icon</a>
<p> 
The size of this icon shows how large the image will be when it's loaded.
Click on the icon whenever you want to load an image. 
<p>
If the author of the page specified alternative text for the unloaded image 
(using the ALT tag), that text will be displayed next to the Unloaded Image 
icon. This can help you identify whether or not you wish to load the image.
<p>
If you have Delay Loading Images selected, and you'd like to load all the
images on a page at once, unselect the Delay Loading Images option and 
<a href="#reload">reload</a> the page.
<p>
If the Delay Loading Images menu item is disabled, the HotJava Browser is 
running short on <a href="#memory">memory</a>.

<dt><b><a name="Monitor">Monitor=></a></b>
<dd>Use the Monitor menu to display the various monitor pages:
<dl>
<dt><a name=progress></a><b>Progress</b>
<dd>Use this to monitor the progress the HotJava Browser is making when 
downloading a new page. You'll probably want to hold down the Shift key when 
choosing this menu item in order to display the Progress Monitor in a new
HotJava Browser window. If you don't use the Shift key, the Progress Monitor 
page replaces the current page, and you can't simultaneously watch the 
monitor and the loading page.
<p>
When no http connections are being made, the Progress Monitor shows a set
of empty gray outlines (progress bars). When a connection is being made, 
the first available gray outline changes to a black outline, and the name 
of the connection the HotJava Browser is trying to make appears above that 
progress bar. The connection is typically what takes the most time.
<p>
Once a connection is made, the progress bars show what is being loaded,
and how far along the loading process is. When an <b>HTML</b> page is
being loaded, a progress bar starts filling with green; when it is
completely filled, the page is loaded. Other data types work the same
way: red indicates an <b>image</b> is being loaded, blue indicates
applet code (<b>class</b> data) is being loaded, and so on. The name of
the item being loaded always appears above the colored progress bar.
<p>
When the Progress Monitor again shows all gray outlines, the HotJava Browser 
is done loading the page and its contents.
<p>
Once you're familiar with the color conventions of the Progress Monitor 
page, you'll be able to use the miniature version of the Progress Monitor,  
displayed next to the Duke image in the upper right corner of the HotJava 
Browser by default.  
<p>
You can also click (or Shift-click) on the miniature progress monitor as a 
shortcut to display the full Progress Monitor page.

<dt><b><a name=memory>Memory</a></b>
<dd>This monitor shows the amount of memory the HotJava Browser is currently 
using, and how much is available. The bar graph represents the total amount of 
memory allocated.  The red area shows how much memory is currently used, and
the green area shows how much is available. The percentage figure in
the graph shows the percentage of memory currently used.
<p>
You normally don't need to actively manage HotJava's memory--it
automatically frees up and allocates more memory as needed. You can
start the process to free up memory at any time, however, by clicking
the <b>Start Cleanup</b> button at the bottom of the Memory page.
<p>
When the HotJava Browser gets close to reaching its memory limit, it 
becomes more aggressive in its attempts to free up memory. At this
point, you may notice messages notifying you of HotJava's clean up
activities. The messages change color from yellow to red as the HotJava 
Browser gets closer to its limit. In the most extreme case, the message 
appears in a popup dialog box instead of in the message area. (The default
location of the message area is in the HotJava Browser header, beneath the 
Place field.)
<p>
The actions that HotJava takes to free up memory in extreme conditions may
include the following:
<ul>
<li>All applet and image loading are automatically delayed until a sufficient 
amount of memory is once again available. See <a href="#delay.applets">Delay
Loading Applets</a> and <a href="#delay.images">Delay Loading Images</a> for
more information. 
<li>The Place field is disabled until there is sufficient memory to
display a new, potentially memory-intensive page. Similarly, the Clone Window, 
Open, and Edit Place menu items are also temporarily disabled. 
The navigation buttons and Places menu list are kept active. If you can
use these to move to a smaller page, you should do so.
<li>HotJava attempts to close any cloned windows, after asking you if it is 
ok to close each one.
</ul>
<b>Note:</b> The user-visible actions to clear memory are only likely to 
happen on systems with very low memory resources.

<dt><b><a name="ThreadMonitor">Thread</a></b>
<dd>This monitor shows a list of all the threads currently running in the
HotJava Browser, their priority, and the thread group they belong to. This 
is useful for applet developers who want to try out
