Mothra may only be able to cope with a small subset of today's websites, but for that subset it's quick and effective. (I've borrowed from lynx the idea of displaying frames as a list of links, so that framed sites can be navigated without having to lay them out fully.) Because it ignores what it doesn't understand, mothra can often glean some useful content from a page where charon tries too hard and just draws a blank. And using mothra I don't have to worry about malicious scripts and cookies ... Anyone with a 2nd edition license can get a boddle from me. -- Richard Miller
