I hadnt realised that eLinks has been resussitated with a fork(Felinks)! Thanks for the heads up, the NEWS file looks promising=
https://github.com/rkd77/elinks/blob/master/NEWS
Particularly so, given fresh references to Python 3, as well as brotli and zstd encodings.
However, its worth citing from this=
https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/network/felinks/```NOTE: Felinks will conflict with Elinks, so currently only one can beinstalled at a time```It would probably be best for that project to be more clear that theoriginal eLinks project is dead with the Felinks name and a new site (Imclearly behind the curve.
It would be good to know how this project is percieved by the wider FOSS community.
Personally, it would be nice to dust off my old eLinks scripts and see how theyapply following bitrot and forking.
Hopefully it would be a good excuse to use PEGs from Lua and/or Guile to convert HTMLcontent to Gemini content. Id like to do this from September.
Id assert that (f)elinks would be a useful interface not only forworking across HTML and Gemini content but additionally pushing HTMLtowards Gemini content (Im now recalling a very old conversationregarding eLinks functionality, whereby my friend likened suchintervensions to 'Stalinux').

I recently created an elinks feature request for gemini, my favorite
console http browser, it appearently also supports gopher, nntp, ftp and
bittorrent.
