Lynx and other character-based browsers run well with slower speed modems because they do not support the larger graphics files. There are a number of sites which allow free access to machines running Lynx or other character- based access tools. As with any Internet resource that is available in multiple locations, always try to use the site closest to you in geographical proximity. Some of these links are outdated, however. WEEA will also maintain a list of alternate access points on our server.
Lynx runs most efficiently on a local machine.
If there is demand for more flexible access to these files, WEEA will contact the University to arrange for additional distribution points on the WEEA server. Please contact us if you are interested in obtaining the DOS version of Lynx, but are unable to do so through the University of Kansas. WEEA has not tested this software. Many universities, libraries, freenets, and Internet provider companies offer Lynx to their users. It is impossible to outline in this publication how a user from any given country might gain access.
