New port of the "links" web browser

People in the russian forum have just started a new port of the "links" web browser (kind of text-mode browser. the one used to access to bookland site). They have added the ability to use it offline.

PRO series
Installation
You have to put links.app and links-offline.app (offline browser - you have to add it to extensions.cfg in order to use it with HTML files)
in /system/bin/

and links-browser.app (online browser)
in "applications" folder.

It is really beta now. There is now a bug-tracker for Pocketbook (registration is in russian, but then you can change your langage preferences)

Font size
In the Russian forum, sergueyvl provides us an usefult tip to change the defaut font size :
Open links-browser.app in a text editor and replace the line :
Code:
exec /mnt/ext1/system/bin/links.app -bookland-off http://www.google.com
by
Code:
cd /mnt/ext1/system/bin/
./links.app -bookland-off -html-user-font-size 30 http://www.google.com
You can naturally replace "30" by whatever you want. And you can change the links-offline.app file too.
See attachment for a sample of the result on Pro 602.


3xx series
There is now a port of the Links browser for the 3xx series.
