- .description
- Lynx is a fully-featured World Wide Web (WWW) client for users running
- cursor-addressable, character-cell display devices (e.g., vt100
- terminals, vt100 emulators running on PCs or Macs, or any other
- character-cell display). It will display Hypertext Markup Language
- (HTML) documents containing links to files on the local system, as
- well as files on remote systems running http, gopher, ftp, wais, nntp,
- finger, or cso/ph/qi servers, and services accessible via logins to
- telnet, tn3270 or rlogin accounts. Current versions of Lynx run on
- Unix and VMS.
-
- Lynx can be used to access information on the WWW, or to build
- information systems intended primarily for local access. For example,
- Lynx has been used to build several Campus Wide Information Systems
- (CWIS). In addition, Lynx can be used to build systems isolated within
- a single LAN.
