LINKS2(1) General Commands Manual LINKS2(1)
NAME
links - lynx-like alternative character mode WWW browser
SYNOPSIS
links2 [options] URL
DESCRIPTION
links2 is a text mode WWW browser with ncurses interface, supporting colors, correct table rendering, background downloading, menu driven
configuration interface and slim code.
Frames are supported. You can have different file formats associated with external viewers. mailto: and telnet: are supported via external
clients.
links2 can handle local (file://) or remote (http:// or ftp://) URLs.
OPTIONS
Most options can be set in the user interface or config file, so usually you do not need to care about them.
-help Print a help screen
-version
Prints the links version number and exit.
-lookup <hostname>
Does name lookup, like command "host".
-g Run Links2 in graphics mode. If not given, Links2 will run in text mode. Running in graphics mode means that Links2 will probe all
compiled-in graphics devices and run on the first found. If none found, links2 will not run in graphics mode. This option works only
if --enable-graphics was given to ./configure.
-no-g Run in text mode (overrides previous -g).
-driver <driver name>
Graphics driver to use. Drivers are: x, svgalib, fb, directfb, pmshell, atheos. List of drivers will be shown if you give it an
unknown driver. Available drivers depend on your operating system and available libraries.
-mode <parameter>
Pass a parameter to the graphics driver. On SVGAlib, this is widthxheightxdepth, (where depth is 16, 256, 32K, 64K, 16M or 16M32)
and defines the graphics mode, on X the format is WIDTHxHEIGHT and defines the window size.
-display <x-display>
Set Xwindow display.
-force-html
Treat files with unknown type as html rather than text. (can be toggled with '' key)
-source <url>
Write unformatted data stream to stdout.
-dump <url>
Write formatted document to stdout.
-width <number>
For dump, document will be formatted to this screen width (but it can still exceed it if lines can't be broken).
-codepage <codepage>
For dump, convert output to specified character set -- for example iso-8859-2, windows-1250.
-anonymous
Restrict links so that it can run on an anonymous account. No local file browsing. No downloads. Executing of viewers is allowed,
but user can't add or modify entries in association table.

PLATFORMS
links2 is known to work on Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, IRIX, HPUX, Digital Unix, AIX, OS/2, BeOS and Win32.
BUGS
Can't connect to some FTP servers (Novell, NT). Connection stays in "Request sent" state.
Frames don't work if there's more frames with same name. Turn them off in such case.
You can't upload large files; it takes _lots_ of memory.
You shouldn't press '^Z' when you are in a viewer
