Thanks for that fine print clarification. While I suppose we should be grateful for even more great software, it would be interesting to know the reasons for this new browser. Is it a problem that Emacs-w3m is "3rd party"? I only have good words for Emacs-w3m - it does its job and it is so easy to configure, both keys (typically, they use too long keys, especially for a non-type setting), and colors (not their fault, because they don't know what colors I use) - the rest is programmable, as always... I remember when there were Lynx, but I was put off because I couldn't make it scroll one line at a time, and they even said in the manual that this was impossible. Then there were Links, but I didn't experience it as near as solid/mature as Lynx (back then, anyway). Now, I see in the Debian repositories there are, apart from those two, and w3m, and Emacs-w3m, also "Elinks", which sounds like Emacs + Links, but the "E" is for "Enhanced", so it is a fork of Links, I take it. So it is a crowded marketplace. -- underground experts united: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
