It reclaims google, altavista, +babelfish, dejanews, freshmeat, research index, slashdot and many others from +the false-prophet, pox-infested heathen lands of html-forms, placing these +wonders where they belong, deep in unix heartland, as god loving extensions +to the shell. + +Surfraw abstracts the browser away from input. Doing so lets it get on with +what it's good at. Browsing. Interpretation of linguistic forms is handed +back to the shell, which is what it, and human beings are good at. Combined +with netscape-remote or incremental text browsers, such as lynx, links or +w3m, along with screen a Surfraw liberateur is capable of navigating speeds +that leave GUI tainted idolaters agape with fear and wonder. +EOF |
