Lynx 2.8.5 - Fully-featured, text-based World Wide Web browser.

About:
Lynx is a fully-featured 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 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.

Changes:
The focus of this release is improved locale support, e.g. using ncurses'
wide-character configuration. There are also numerous performance
enhancements. Other notable areas of improvement include file uploading,
SSL, bzip2, and scripting.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

it doesn't work *with* anything. it's a stand alone OS. You can put it in a
separate partition of your HD and dual boot between xp and Linux

There's a difference.

Lynx: Text-only browser (it works under Windows too).
Linux: Kernel that lots of long-haired hippies seem to like.
