Lynx if I'm not mistaken came out only around 2000.  Well, in the middle of 1994, there was a widespread program called Mosaic (pre-cursor of Netscape) which really made web pages graphical (and magical during those days).  But there is a text based browser during that time of which the name escapes me.  However, there were other similar text based services, not necessarily on the world wide web, like wais, archie, etc...

Some funny things about lynx ...
