Lynx

Lynx AleTechnology

A Web browser that only displays text and is accessed by using a keyboard instead of a mouse. Lynx users will not be able to see images or hear sounds, and may not see a Web page in its intended format. It is commonly used by those who are visually impaired, have slower connections to the Internet, or do not want all the graphics displayed (graphics take a lot of time to download on slower connections). Lynx is ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compatible.
