Comment on Text mode (console) browsing with tabs with Elinks / Text browsers – (lynx, elinks, links and w3m) useful HTTP debugging tools for Linux and FreeBSD servers by admin.

Also for various configurations, while w3m has a running website press “o” key. A very long screen with “multiple” configuration options in the format (Yes / No) will appear, cookies, colors, proxies, ssl certificates, browser ftp settings behavariour etc. are configurable.

People who would like to have a monochrome display like in the old days the Hercules monitor display on modern screens displaying in (blue and black) colors run w3m -M e.g.:

# w3m -M http://yandex.ru

Something, else I forgot to mention is that WIndows users can also enjoy text mode browsing with lynx or w3m browsers.
Below is a quote directly extracted from w3m manual page:

w3m run on Unix (Solaris, SunOS, HP-UX, Linux, FreeBSD, and EWS4800) and on Microsoft Windows 9x/NT.

Some time ago, I’ve tested lynx on Microsoft Windows and it works fine too. lynx is even available for OpenVMS and other archaic operating systems as well.

Something I forgot to mention in the article is w3m 

text browser, has very funny controls. Its just a cursor you move manually across the scren with down, left, up, down arrows. When you use it its like moving a mouse cursor, tabs between clickable buttons are not moved when up/down arrow is presssed, its an inteersting concept to see 🙂

Christ is Risen Eastern Orthodox Resurrection Paschal Greeting in Different Languages
Hi Stan,

I guess you cannot read the writtings on the icon as it is in cyrillic.
This is not Saint Mary and Saint Peter but Adam and Eve written in cyrillic on top of the icon.
Actually in orthodoxy it is a requirement for the depicted personalities, especially saints to have
written on the names of the saint and have the Halo. If you look closely at the picture you will notice
the two Adam and Eve are missing a Halo. The only person with a Halo in the icon is Saint John the Baptist.

Best Regards
Georgi

       –rwo, –report-warnings-only
              This option causes only warning messages to be displayed. This can be useful when rkhunter is run via cron. Other options may
              be used to force other items of information to be displayed.

       –sk, –skip-keypress
              When  the  –check command option is used, after certain sections of tests, the user will be prompted to press the return key
              in order to continue. This option disables that feature, and rkhunter will run until all the tests have completed.

As rkhunter check, can be pretty annoying and ask you to press keypresses multiple times and spit you a lot of unnecessery data a very good useful option arguments are:

–rwo and –sk

# rkhunter -c –rwo –sk
Warning: The SSH and rkhunter configuration options should be the same:
         SSH configuration option 'PermitRootLogin': yes
         Rkhunter configuration option 'ALLOW_SSH_ROOT_USER': no
