This Links v2.25 port to DOS is indeed stable and good. Couple recent discoveries. The right-click 'open (link) in new window' actually opens up a new 'window'. Although tabs aren't supported, 'windows' are managed similarly via the Windows dropdown or keyboard (Alt-F1 to Alt-F#). If more than one window is running the 'q' (quit) key closes only the active window.

Not documented in the 'Keys' (keyboard shortcut) pop-up, on this keyboard the Delete key allows scrolling two lines at a time. This is a nice discovery, as scrolling via up/down arrow is sometimes jumpy (jump from link to link). Slow scrolling via mouse can also be done by holding down middle mouse button plus up/down and, of course, Page Up/Down and Home/End keys to move about quickly.

The Insert key likewise slow scrolls up, also not mentioned in 'Keys' popup. Unfortunately it does not repeat when held down. Official slow scroll up/down keys are the letters 'p' and 'l'. My hands don't always hover there so Insert/Delete is convenient.

So, no JavaScript support yet. :P

What's also funny, I tried running Windows version on XP some time ago and it complained about some missing API function.
