I checked with edbrowse on my system and found out edbrowse can read
melpa.org.
For those of us not running graphical user interfaces, edbrowse is an
editor-browser clone that runs in text mode and supports enough javascript
to pass the javascript ghoon at the door. It has a learning curve and
configuration to do on the systems that already have it packaged for users
to download and use.

But to use MELPA, why worry about JavaScript
and the web at all?
Why not just do
(setq package-archives
'(( "gnu elpa" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
( "melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/" )))
and then use `list-packages' happily
ever after?

Strange, here/with this it works fine:
https://dataswamp.org/~incal/emacs-init/elpa.el
(Yeah, should rename that file...)

Strange, this one had a file open error and couldn't even download the gnu
elpa package archive. Does browser have to be set for any of this to work?

When I posted recently about the irony of melpa's site not being usable
from within Emacs, the context was that some web browsing (e.g. Sacha
Chua's Emacs news posts) may have links to the melpa website. Yes, I can
manually bring up the package list and search for the particular
package, and I do do that, but it would sure be nice to simply follow
the link and see the package information.
1st world problem, eh? ;-)
