Any Lynx(text based browser) lover-user?

(1/5) > >>

kartal:
I have started using Lynx. it is great, it is awesome and it is a total no  b@llshit approach. It makes surfing fun again(no flash banners, no video ads, only text) ! I was wondering if there are any lynx user here, maybe we can create a tips and tricks section. I am relatively new user. I hope that more people would use it so that developement continues :(

"Lynx is a text browser for the World Wide Web.   Lynx 2.8.5 runs on Un*x, VMS, Windows 95/98/NT, DOS386+ but not 3.1, 3.11, or OS/2 EMX.  The  current developmental version is also available for testing.  Ports to Mac are in beta test."

I would love to try this, but...I have Vista.
Unless, does NT include Vista? There are NT files on this PC...

kartal:
try this page, no installation required. It should work on vista. I am using it under xp64

Thanks Kartal, but I don't even understand the page, it's way over my head...no problem though, if you run into something idiot-friendly, keep me in mind  ;)
