elinks with gopher support Saturday Sep 24 9:36:45 2016 Even though I love lynx, links2 and w3m, elinks is by far the text browser I use the most. I love its keybindings which make it a blast to use, I love its tab support, bookmarks, layout and so on and so forth... There was this one little thing I disliked about elinks. I copy from their manual: 2.7.21. Gopher Protocol Support (CONFIG_GOPHER) Default: disabled This means that even though the gopher protocol is supported by elinks, it is disabled by default. Well, in debian, elinks is built using the defaults. So in my local installation elinks had to call lynx to take care of gopher links. However on sdf-eu elinks is built with gopher support. So, I decided to compile it myself this time. It is really easy to do, the only thing I had to do is configuring it from the start to enable gopher. Thus: ./configure --enable-gopher make make install Now I can enjoy gopher without switching browsers. Mr.Frood should be really proud of me ;)
