Notes:

ELinks is advanced fast evolving text-mode WWW browser. It features support for tables, frames, colors, background downloads, menus and dialogs and tabs, hiearchic bookmarks, cookies, SSL, HTTP and proxy authentication, downloads resuming, and Lua and/or Guile scripting; everything you'd expect from a modern web browser (except JavaScript and CSS, yet).

It also strives for easy and extensive configurability. The browser supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SMB, finger and local files browsing (including local CGI support), while the user can define user-defined handlers for any other protocols or URL rewriting rules similiar to konqueror's URL prefixes.

ELinks is originally based on the Links browser. This description applies to ELinks-0.9.0, newer versions are going to be even better! ;-)
