I am a bit unsure what "default home directory" means in this case. I
use the following shell function to change the default start page of
links (and of no other browser) to $HOME/www/index.html
links() {
if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
/usr/bin/env links $HOME/www/index.html
else
/usr/bin/env links "$@"
fi
}
The modification for some other default start page - which can as well
be a directory as of a file - is obvious.
That much on a modified start page. Now on a modified directory links
is started in. For this replace both /usr/bin/env calls by
(cd $DirectoryInQuestion; /usr/bin/env ...)
where $DirectoryInQuestion is the default home.
This changes to the given directory, starts links and after
termination of links automagically changes back to the initial
directory (the magic is done by the parentheses that start both
commands in a child shell that is terminated immediately after
termination of links).
