I have downloaded all the files - dont see any setup etc among the
files I extracted. Want to put this text only browser on an old laptop
and see what it can do. Can someone help me get it running ?
See two screen shots.
Thanks !

As far as I can tell, ELinks is for Linux. I see that the homepage mentions it working with Windows, but I would guess that is through some kind of emulator or rewritten source file. From a link on the manual page: "ELinks is known to work on Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, IRIX, HPUX, Digital Unix, AIX, OS/2, BeOS and RISC OS. Port for Win32 is in state of beta testing."

There are others too like Lynks, but I'll watch them and see
if anybody puts out something for the public.
Thanks !
