I'm going to compile X and use 14 Konqueror/Mozilla/Whatever!". Those who have been around systems for a while 15 know that when (not if) you manage to mess up your graphical browser install 16 and you need to look up some information on the web, a console based browser 17 will save you. Also, there are quite a few people who prefer to use one of 18 these browsers as their principle method of browsing; either to avoid the 19 clutter and bandwidth which accompanies images or because they may use a 20 text-to-speech synthesizer which can read the page to them (of use for instance 21 to partially sighted or blind users). We currently have installation 22 instructions for three console web browsers:</para> 23 24 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude" href="links.xml"/> 25 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude" href="lynx.xml"/> 26 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude" href="w3m.xml"/> 9 <?dbhtml filename="textweb.html"?> 10 11 <title>Text Web Browsers</title> 12 13 <para>People who are new to Unix-based systems tend to ask the question "Why on 14 earth would I want a text-mode browser?
