Just a quick note to browser devs, you don't have to put the double rightarrow symbol next to links, and indeed, if I arrow unto a link line, Iexpect Enter to activate that link. But, with the double right arrow symbolbefore that link on the line, it just activates that instead, with noresult. I've taken out the double right arrow of the Elpher client, sincethat's configurable, but it isn't in GemiNaut so I can only Tab to the linkthen press Enter, or use the screen reader's "next link" command. Oh and akeyboard command to go to the address bar is always great. :)Devin Praterr.d.t.prater at gmail.com

Apologies, I need to address one mistake in my last post and add one
thought.
First, the mistake. I forgot to remove the quote marks for Seans
example, in case anyone got confused and would attribute the change to him.
```:
____ _ _
| _ \ _ _| |_| |__ ___ _ __
| |_) | | | | _| '_ \ / _ \| ._ \
| __/| |_| | |_| | | | (_) | | | |
|_| \_, |\__|_| |_|\___/|_| |_|
|___/
```
I'm not suggesting that the above actually be what the authors of
clients should choose to adopt as their "convention", I'm just
clarifying that I edited Sean's example for the purposes of using it as
an example, as he suggested :)
Second, I would prefer not to refer to ASCII art or ANSI art as art at
all for the purposes of user accessibility, but rather, something like
perhaps "Noise". Because that is effectively what we're doing by
treating such preformatted blocks as a comment, filtering out the noise
for those who will be listening audibly to the dictation of a .gmi file.
Besides, .png and .jpg files, and even .gif or video files may
themselves either contain or themselves be artwork.
Beyond any of that, I do think we need to move on the issue of noise
with some expedience.
I hope that helps :)
Kindest regards,
