Or looking at websites using a web browser. This is -probably by far the most popular use of the Internet for the average user.</p> - -<p>Slackware provides popular graphical web browsers in the “XAP” series, as -well as text mode browsers in the “N” series. We'll take a quick look at some -of the most common options below.</p> - -<div class="SECT2"> -<h2 class="SECT2"><a id="AEN4776" name="AEN4776">13.8.1 <tt -class="COMMAND">lynx</tt></a></h2> - -<p><tt class="COMMAND">lynx</tt>(1) is a text-based web browser. It is a very quick way -of looking up something on the Internet. Sometimes graphics just get in the way if you -know exactly what you're after.</p> - -<p>To start <tt class="COMMAND">lynx</tt>, just type <tt class="COMMAND">lynx</tt> at the -prompt:</p> - -<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%"> -<tr> -<td> -<pre class="SCREEN"> -<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">lynx</kbd> -</pre> -</td> -</tr> -</table> - -<div class="FIGURE"><a id="FIG-BASIC-NETWORK-COMMANDS-WEB-LYNX" -name="FIG-BASIC-NETWORK-COMMANDS-WEB-LYNX"></a> -<p><b>Figure 13-5.

The up and down arrow keys move around the document, <kbd -class="USERINPUT">Enter</kbd> selects the highlighted link, and the <kbd -class="USERINPUT">left arrow</kbd> goes back to the previous page. Typing <kbd -class="USERINPUT">d</kbd> will download the currently selected file. The <kbd -class="USERINPUT">g</kbd> command brings up the Go prompt, where you can give <tt -class="COMMAND">lynx</tt> a URL to open.</p> - -<p>There are many other commands in <tt class="COMMAND">lynx</tt>. You can either consult -the man page, or type <kbd class="USERINPUT">h</kbd> to get the help screen for more -information.</p> -</div> - -<div class="SECT2"> -<h2 class="SECT2"><a id="AEN4813" name="AEN4813">13.8.2 <tt -class="COMMAND">links</tt></a></h2> - -<p>Just like <tt class="COMMAND">lynx</tt>, <tt class="COMMAND">links</tt> is a textmode -web browser, where you do all the navigation using the keyboard. However, when you press -the <kbd class="USERINPUT">Esc</kbd> key, it will activate a very convenient pulldown -menu on the top of the screen. This makes it very easy to use, without having to learn -all the keyboard shortcuts. People who do not use a text browser every day will -appreciate this feature.</p> - -<p><tt class="COMMAND">links</tt> seems to have better support for both frames and -tables, when compared to <tt class="COMMAND">lynx</tt>.</p> - -<div class="FIGURE"><a id="FIG-BASIC-NETWORK-COMMANDS-WEB-LINKS" -name="FIG-BASIC-NETWORK-COMMANDS-WEB-LINKS"></a> -<p><b>Figure 13-6.
