To run UNIX Netscape on AmiWin, you need to have access to a computer
running UNIX which have netscape installed. If you have this access
you just run netscape like any other remote X11 app:

amiga> xhost +unix.host.net
amiga> telnet unix.host.net
[ now you login to the Unix ]
unix> setenv DISPLAY your.amiga.net:0
unix> netscape &

The problem is that most people do not have access to a UNIX host
these days...
