1 Links 2 ===== 3 Links is a Lynx-like text and graphics WWW browser. 4 5 This fork cleans up a lot of legacy code but removes the graphics mode. 6 If that mode was important to you then steer clear. 7 8 WARNING: This has been subtly broken for a while. It sometimes segfaults on 9 unexpected pages in a way that is difficult to debug (it forces gdb to the 10 background on segfault and `fg` just sends it back to the background). I still 11 occasionally use it for reading mailing list archives but fixing it is not high 12 priority. Patches are always welcome! 13 14 Requirements 15 ------------ 16 In order to build links you need the following: 17 * libevent 18 * libssl 19 20 21 Installation 22 --------------- 23 Edit config.mk to match your local setup (links is installed into 24 the /usr/local namespace by default). 25 26 Afterwards enter the following command to build and install links (if 27 necessary as root): 28 ``` 29 make clean install 30 ```
