Hello, list!

Let me first tell you about a problem I often face. I'm blind, and I
use elinks for most of my Internet surfing. It's convenient to use the
search command to find a string on current web page. However, after
searching, it's not easy for me to find the search result. After
searching, the cursor is left back either on a link or at the bottom
line of the screen, while the search result is displayed some other
place on the screen. To find the string, I need to read through the
entire or most of the screen content.

So what about implement a sort of virtual link where the search result
are displayed, that tracks the cursor onto that location? If that was
possible, I would find the result immediately, as the braille display
which I use, always displays the line which contains the cursor as the
cursor moves.

If such a virtual link was implemented into Elinks, I think also it
could be fine to have commands to jump to next/previous heading,
table, paragraph, text and so on.

Sorry, but I'm not a programmer. It would be great if somebody here
would like to implement such a feature, if people here think it would
make sense.

Best regards,
Lars
