:Description: The Elinks text-browser
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
elinks - lynx-like alternative character mode WWW browser
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'elinks' [OPTION]... [URL]...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
'ELinks' is a text mode WWW browser, supporting colors, table rendering,
|
|
background downloading, menu driven configuration interface, tabbed browsing
|
|
and slim code.
|
|
|
|
Frames are supported. You can have different file formats associated with
|
|
external viewers. `mailto:` and `telnet:` are supported via external clients.
|
|
|
|
ELinks can handle both local files and remote URLs. The main supported remote
|
|
URL protocols are 'HTTP', 'HTTPS' (with SSL support compiled in) and 'FTP'.
|
|
Additional protocol support exists for 'BitTorrent' 'finger', 'Gopher',
|
|
'SMB' and 'NNTP'.
|
|
|
|
The homepage of 'ELinks' can be found at http://elinks.cz/[], where the ELinks
|
|
manual is also hosted.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Most options can be set in the user interface or config file, so usually you
|
|
do not need to care about them. Note that this list is roughly equivalent to
|
|
the output of running ELinks with the option `--long-help`.
