It's personal, I'm sure, but I can't see any benefit in spending effort beyond installing Inferno's web browser (the name's just slipped out of my mind, maybe so have I). The VNC viewer approach seems even more productive, but I'll grant that there are exceptional situations where it is not viable. But installing curses and compiling a curses-based utility as an alternative to the above seems too expensive a path to follow. Others (masochists?) may differ. ++L
