Main drawbacks include: No HTTP-auth support and no persistent cookies (i.e. they die when all instances of Links are closed).</p><p>If you want additional features, including HTTP-auth, persistent cookies, and on-the-fly compression, try ELinks. (Note: links-0.9x and ELinks versions > 0.3 do not share executable name or configuration files so you can safely run these on the same machine.)</p><p>If you want the option of graphics mode, use <a class="ulink" href="http://links.twibright.com" target="_top">Links2</a> or <a class="ulink" href="http://xray.sai.msu.ru/~karpov/links-hacked/" target="_top">Hacked Links</a>. Be aware that some people have reported the latter as hard to configure/compile. You cannot run either of these with Links-0.9x on the same system without hacking the compile-time configuration.</p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="ch02s05.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="ch02.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ch02s07.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Why are there so many Links flavors? </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> What are the Ki (kibi) and Mi (mebi) units?</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
