As a matter of fact, yes. I compared this javascript test page* in both links and firefox, both did everything correctly. * http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/GO/EXPLORIT/java/IntroJavaScript.html Also Links 2 can do color at the console and it can use SVGALIB or X11, to display graphics, if you use the -g flag. Full mouse support at the console and in graphical mode, downloads stuff in the background etc. On some of my servers I install X11 (I just use the default twm) with a tabbed terminal emulator, Links with graphical support, and stuff like pgadmin3. I find that I can work faster in X11 because I can have open 16+ xterms, run links -g to look up docs, and copy & paste all on one screen. running pgadmin3 is a plus too when your migrating from 7.3 => 8.1. I'm sure alot of old hats cringe at the idea of running X11 on a server, I don't like the the general Idea of it too, but for me it's faster then Alt + Fn. I just had to do a complete rebuild (backup, wipe, fresh install of 6.1-PRERELEASE, updated ports) of one server and man was it a time saver, sitting at a black and white console for 48 hours is no fun :-\ Anyways back to Links, the only downfall of Links is that it doesn't do ssl (https), but I think the only one that does ssl is Lynx-ssl http://links.twibright.com/features.php -- BSD Podcasts @ http://bsdtalk.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
