Hey thanks! I had to install both but worked well. What do you find the primary differences are between lynx and elinks and why do you prefer elinks?
Happy to help :)
links does a very good job rendering complex page layouts, _including_ frames and tables. It supports mouse clicks and mousewheel if used with a nice terminal (e.g. konsole, PuTTy, I guess others would work too). It's interface is also menu-driven (try Alt-F, or click the top line of the screen), which makes it simple to find commands that you can't remember as shortcuts. It also has all the shortcuts I was used to from lynx IIRC.
And once you're looking for CLI tools for the web, I'm also going to suggest that you look into wget, if you haven't.
