Hi all!

You can find a version of the Links text-mode Web browser here (http://www.chingu.asia/wiki/index.php?title=Recompilingporting+Links#TOC_2) and Aminet (http://aminet.net/package/comm/www/Links2.12)...

Have fun! :)

sorry for replying to such old thread...
is there any chance links2 could run in graphics mode on Amiga?
its an awesome project.

Hi Orange!

I don't know, I didn't look at this mode... Maybe I could try! :)
Do you have experience with it?

Cheers!

I've tried it a bit on linux and it displays images. formatting is gone, like in text. but it looks quite good, fast and stable.
you run it with: links2 -g
(original links has only text mode)
youtube doesn't work, google too, displays that its not suuported, but duckduckgo works nice.
javascript doesn't seem to work.
I'll try to attach few examples.

Nice! :D

I'll see if that's also possible on Amiga!
