Uah, I like it but it's just too long.
I suggest to skip the date. Besides, AM/PM is as dead
as imperial units.

 Screw xhtml. g  I'm sticking with HTML, just like I stick with Lynx. :-)

Yes, but XHTML helps Lynx to display stuff too because
it's well-formed XML = all tags are closed = no guess game.

 On the wonderfully graphic Mac OS X, I set up Lynx as my default browser. :D

Nice.

 And it's the only browser I know which supports
 * textfields-need-activation

 Qu'est-ce que c'est?

Je ne parle pa français. I assume you want to RTFM?

 * partial displaying with a threshold of 1

 ?

Each TCP segment which comes in, delivering a handful
of HTML source to lynx, causes it to display another
partial line of the page you're viewing, or so.
Nice if you switch it on, if you ask me ;)

 * a source view starting where in the rendered form
   of the page you're in right now

 Eh? Is that a special setting? My Lynx always goes to the top of the page.

Yesterday I noticed that it doesn't work correctly
in an 113x42 xterm, only in the 80x24 console. In
the larger xterm, it's offset (but flips back correctly
if I go to the (incorrect) position it set me when
switching to source).

 OmniWeb has something similar -- click a tiny box in a corner of the text 
 field
 and up pops an editor window.

Never heard of that one ;)

 And not one of these features I miss does a
 graphical browser give me.

 P...r...0...n. LOL

Nah:
- Lynx spawns xloadimage when needed
- d save mplayer enter
- ASCII pr0n ;)

Note that valid XHTML 1.1 will never work with IE because it is illegal
to serve it with a text/html media type.

That's not part of the XHTML 1.1 spec, but some other _recommendation_
from the W3C. Besides, their validator lets my pages through just fine.

And, I don't know of any legacy browser which chokes on br /.
(But then, besides Lynx ;), Links, Links+, w3m, Arachne, Internet
Explorer, Netscape 2+, I don't know much ;)
