[»] binary downloads
by Jim Kunkel - Nov 28th 2006 11:30:08

I can download binary files in IE or Firefox by just typing the fully qualified reference in the address bar. I can't figure out how to download binary files with elinks. Can someone help me out?

Thanks in advance.

[»] excellent software
by Richard Harris - Sep 15th 2005 21:06:23

I am very happy with elinks. It is my everyday
browser and I only use FireFox when I need to see
the graphics. I have not found a single thing
wrong with elinks.

I do have one suggestion. I think it would be nice
if textareas invoked an editor, in the same way
that a mailto link invokes an email client.

Thanks for your good work.

    You can do that. By default, it is bound to Ctrl-T ...

Elinks is really pretty fantastic - my everyday browser.

Couple of complaints though - some documentation for the config file would be nice, so I can get zgv working, and ps2txt, and so on. And secondly - please get the ^Xe external text editor function working! I still have go into klunky old Lynx occasionally so I can use vim in text boxes.

Certainly recommended, though.

    Thanks :-).

    We work intensively on this, it's getting much betters in these days in fact ;-).

    Could you elaborate, please? There should be no problem with ^E if you are using standalone ELinks instances. That can be trivially accomplished by starting elinks with -no-connect parameter (see elinks -help for full description of instances) - I agree that it is still very inconvient, though ;-(. A better solution is being prepared, some other things have higher priority now, though.

[»] Great browser
by Roger B - May 14th 2002 13:17:06

I love elinks, much better than lynx IMHO. My only
complaint is that mouse support only works in X,
not on the console. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Very strange.. if you mean support for menus etc, do you have gpm and ncurses installed? I would be glad for more detailed bug report sent to pasky@ji.cz. If you mean support for cut'n'paste, try to press shift when you press mouse buttons.
