cb57efce85 In browsers part:
- Move the Firefox installation section just after the Mozilla one and
  just before the plugin sections;
- Rewrite the Java plugin installation section to use the binary
  packages provided by the FreeBSD Foundation;
- In the Flash plugin section, explain for real how to install the
  plugin and and give the procedure to patch the system to prevent
  browser crashes.
- Use of the "about:plugins" facility to list the installed plugins
  (this works in both Mozilla and Firefox)

This should answer to many questions on the subject we can find on
various lists.

available for FreeBSD.

00bb2abdd7 6 Desktop Applications:
- kill the section on Netscape browser, it was removed from the Ports
  collection two months ago for long term unpatched security problems.
  Its 6 and 7 versions never gained a significant mindshare against Mozilla
  anyway.
- remove all other references to Netscape
- update Adobe Acrobat references to mention version 7 and remove the example
  for package installation, we don't have Acrobat packages due to licensing
  restrictions.
- unify capitalization of the Ports collection

  (jdk13 is not actual anymore, neither is Flash 5)
- Replace them by two new chapters, one on Java plugin (documenting current
  state of jdk15 port), second for linuxpluginwrapper which allows users
  to run the Linux versions of Flash 6, Realplayer and Adobe Acrobat plugins

- Use trademark entities.
 - Add trademark attributions.
 - Always use correct case for trademarks.
 - Don't join trademarks with other words, e.g. using hyphens.
 - Don't use trademarks as nouns (e.g. don't use "Windows NT's").

diskless-x/article.sgml:
 - While I'm here anyway add trademark tags for all trademarks, now
   that the stylesheet handles it right.

trademark.ent:
 - Add entities for more trademarks / companies.

Also rename the 3Com trademark entity from t3com to tm.3com.  This
should make the entity naming convention a bit more consitent.  This is
done now since the entity is not used too many places yet.
