But since screen somehow does not work on my Slackware box (bug with locale, anyone knows the solution for this?) I've decided to switch my beloved editor and newsreader for something new (namely: I wanted to have integrated environment, all things in one place). The choice was easy: emacs + gnus. I've configured all things and it works fine except one things: the browser. In every day browsing the Web I use links and since I am used to it I don't want to change to any other (lynx or w3). Here simple question/problem occurs: how does one integrate the thing with emacs? My first idea was to use (setq browse-url-generic-program "links") in .emacs file but this does not work; or rather: this works since links is listed in ps aux output but it is placed on some strange terminal which I can't make visible. My second idea was to search the Web; there I found links.el somewhere in the groups archives. This *does* work but it runs links in separate terminal which I don't like that much. I want to have my browser executed in the Emacs buffer as to copy/paste things from the webpage to the edited text for example. There's function links-browse-with-buffer (or similar) but this just copies the text from page to the buffer (at least in my case). Does anyone know any reasonable solution to this problem? Did anyone succeded in integrating links and emacs? I'll be most gratefull for any hints/tips you may have. -- Lukasz Grabun (reply-to field is fake, use grabek (at) acn dot waw dot pl to reply)
