Enhanced/Extended Links (ELinks) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Development version of Links (Lynx-like text WWW browser), with more liberal features policy and development style. This is the ELinks tree - intended to provide a feature-rich version of Links. Its purpose is to provide an alternative to Links, and to test and tune various new features, but still provide good rock-solid releases inside stable branches. See the manpage for a detailed description of ELinks and its features. If you are more interested, you can examine the Links website at http://links.sf.net/. For new ELinks version announcements please see the elinks-user mailing list at http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/elinks-users. The ELinks site with some basic information is available at http://elinks.or.cz/. Please see the SITES file for mirrors or other recommended sites. If you want to install ELinks on your computer, see the INSTALL file for further instructions. Why not contribute to Links instead? Well, first I made a bunch of patches for the original Links, but a significant number of them got refused because Mikulas did not like them, as he just wouldn't have any use for them himself. He wants to keep Links with a relatively closed feature set and merge only new features which he himself needs. It has advantages that the tree is very narrow and the code is small and contains very little bloat. ELinks, on the contrary, aims to provide a full-featured web browser, superior to both lynx and w3m and with the possibilities of Konqueror and similiar browsers. However, to prevent drastic bloating of the code, the development is driven in the course of modularization and separation of add-on modules (like cookies, bookmarks, ssl, lua etc). If you want to write some patches, please read the doc/hacking.txt document. If you want to add a new language or update the translation for an existing one, please read intl/README document. If you want to write some documentation, well you're welcomed ;) If you want to request features or report bugs, use the mailing list as mentioned above, bugzilla at bugzilla.elinks.or.cz or come and see us on irc.freenode.net #elinks. $Id: README,v 1.21 2003/12/24 12:16:33 jonas Exp $ vim: textwidth=80
