Hi,

We just updated "links" (command line web browser) to the latest version in the 
SVN, but does anyone actually use it?

I think I asked this over in the devel list some years ago, but time to ask 
again.

While "links" is kind of cool in principle, without Javascript and without 
Image support (as we build it) it's usefulness seems very limited anymore.  It 
does allow you to view the AstLinux web interface via a serial console, but 
actually using it redefines the word 'tedious'.

Also "links" is large in size, almost 1 MB.

So, does anyone use "links" or see a way it could get you out of a jam ?  If 
yes, I would be very curious how you use it.

On the other hand if "links" is dead weight for us, we should disable it in the 
default AstLinux builds.

Lonnie
