Howard Schwartz did a very appreciated mini-review there about this
"new-comer" of a browser, "w3m".
One thing to be mentioned in addition is that it needs a 386+ at least;
so it seems not precisely an "any PC" solution, besides of the (yet)
restricted variety of OSs it can run with.
I wonder (cannot test it meself, and didn't find any indication in the
docs & histrory) if it manages HTTP-1.1 - probably -, and how it
behaves to get around those as frequently as illegally used REFRESH tags.
The latest DOS ports of the (386-)Lynxes do that quite well now.
FRAMEs, btw, seem not so much an issue (mostly they're obsolete, if
need be they can be loaded in sequence) but TABLEs are. Funnily enough
I didn't see any HTML-stripper either which could get out tables which
would not need some heavy editing; though the HTML mark-up for tables
seems quite easy to read. (Nested TABLEs are allowed but in fact
extremely rare, except with those crappy HTML pages where TABLE has
been - illegally - used for column layout.)
