using lynx.

[Janina Sajka]

Just dive in. The water is warm.

Basic keys -- use up and down arrows on the 4-key cursor cross to go up
and down through links. TAB works, but shift-TAB doesn't, so up and down
are better.

ENTER or right arrow to traverse a hyperlink.

? that's "question mark" for mor help.

The real important issue for a blind user is to set the "show_cursor"
feature to on. You can do that at the command line like so:

lynx -show_cursor

You can do a lot with Lynx once you learn how including front-ending Real
Audio streams.
