Wow! I was just looking through the FreeBSD
/usr/ports/*/pkg-descr, and discovered that modern links
already comes with graphics capabilities. Just invoke with
'links -g [url]'.
From your description, I thought it was a separate program
rather than a built in function. In fact neither links 0.98
(the one I have on my Linux box) nor links 0.99 (the one on
my wife's Linux box) has graphics capabilities.
In the old days, I might have thought how bloated it is,
but at 2.8MB, I guess that's not too bad these days for a
browser that'll run in text mode on the console, and either
text or graphics mode in X.
