This article is incomplete and in some cases incorrect. I am not a Wiki user, so I have no clue on how to do anything to fix this, but if somebody wants the background info on NavCIS, you may contact me (former employee working on NavCIS) at sk4477@googlemail.com

CompuServe Navigator

Was NavCIS also called CompuServe Navigator, at least on the Mac? I've seen a few old Mac books reference a "CompuServe Navigator" (like Hayden's PowerBook 2nd ed. by Raines Cohen and Scott Rubin), and I see CompuServe Navigator redirects here.

Though it seems there was also a program called "CompuServe Navigator, Windows version" (comma and all).[3] (InfoWorld Sep 5, 1994, page 29).

InfoWorld Apr 4, 1994, page 23, says: "CompuServe Navigator, Windows Version 1.0 (CSNav)", [4], so that's yet a different acronym, ad I don't know how these all relate.

PC Mag Mar 15, 1994, page 153, says "CompuServe Navigator, Windows Version" is "Based on the popular CompuServe Navigator for Macintosh", and that article includes a screenshot of the "CompuServe Information Manager for Windows".

Hopefully we can track down more sources to see what's what, what evolved from what, and which names correspond to different programs or the same programs. DFlhb (talk) 19:58, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
