Links[1] supports at least some Javascript. Not sure how well--I've
only ever used it on the couple of occasions I've needed to SSH from
work to my home computer and fiddle with the web interface on the
wireless point.

Interesting. I never thought to try that, but it does work. I did this:
sudo apt-get install lynx
fossil setting web-browser lynx
fossil ui
... and it works! You don't see the timeline graph (of course) and the
it would be nice to make this (text browsers) really usable. re the
timeline graph: here (text browser) as well as in the CLI timeline output
it would be a further point to the wish list to have an ASCII art
rendering of the graph a la `hg glog' which I find extremely helpful.
right now with fossil one is really forced to use a full-fledged web
browser to understand the "topology" of a repo.
side-by-side diff display doesn't work, but a lot of things do work.
well not quite, not for me: the timeline links are not recognized (neither
by lynx, nor by links, nor by w3m, nor by elinks (the latter being a
spin-off of links supporting frames and being quite nice over all): lynx
highlights the sha1 hashes but I can't navigate to them and activate the
link. `links' does not recognize/highlight the sha1 hashes at all,
`elinks' believes nearly everything on the page is a (dead) link.
can someone confirm these problems?
