It is another text-based web browser. It supports frames and tables. Pretty 
nifty, fast as a Vette. Included in all (AFAIK) your beloved Linux distros.

$ rpm -qi `rpm -qf /usr/bin/links`

Summary     : A text-mode Web browser.
Description :
Links is a text-based Web browser. Links does not display any images,
but it does support tables and most other HTML tags. The advantage
Links has over graphical browsers is its speed -- Links starts and
exits quickly and swiftly displays webpages.

The elinks package contains the enhanced Links (elinks) program.



Salut,
Josep
