Then I read that emacs could handle graphics and got all excited and learned how to fire up w3-el, only to be told later by someone that only when running in X can emacs handle the graphics. Bummer. However, last night while running lynx I clicked on a .gif link and low-and-behold, the image appeared! So apparently lynx can handle some types of graphics. All this time when I was asking for a graphical console-based web browser because lynx can't handle graphics, lynx CAN handle (at least some) graphics. Maybe there's some way of configuring lynx so it knows how to handle other types of graphics as well. I assume that what you really want is a graphical console-based web browser, and don't really care if it's emacs or something else. In which case, this reply doesn't give any real answers, but maybe it does give some hope that you may be able to accomplish your goal. -- Kent West [EMAIL PROTECTED] KC5ENO - Amateur Radio: When all else fails.
