It's definitely not there in the version I have, which I got with the current version of Ubuntu, Gutsy Gibbon. When I click the edit button it tells me you can't edit a folder or some such message. When I hit the space bar or the plus key, the plus-or-minus indicator to thne left of display urls changes back and forth, but nothing becomes visible below it. Very frustrating. I am running the program in konsole. Version is 0.11.1, built on September 28, 2007. Any ideas?

Re: [elinks-users] Using Elinks with TinyUrl?
I notice that, just before the program starts, I get six lines of this error: /home/seth/.elinks//elinks.conf:82: parse error Does that help with a diagnosis? The program runs seemingly OK after displaying those lines.

Re: [elinks-users] Using Elinks with TinyUrl?
I don't know if this may help you, but if you enable the Display URIs option for plain text rendering you can sometime make the links accessible by changing to the page source view. Sorry to be dense, but I can't seem to find this switch in the options manager. Or is it somewhere else?

[elinks-users] Using Elinks with TinyUrl?
I am having trouble using TinyUrl with Elinks. I can go the site and get the shrunken url, but there appears to be no easy way to copy the tiny url just created -- it does not present as an active url that I can copy to xclip. Does anybody know how to do this?

Re: [elinks-users] How to copy url of page you're on?
There may have been some changes in elinks since you wrote this very fine page. I didn't find link-external-command or tab-external-command under Main Mapping. But I did find two that said something like pass URI to external command, something along those lines (I'm not at a computer now where I can look at elinks). One of these I used for the key binding Alt-p, and then I added an item I called clip to URI passing section in the option manager. I used your script, which is echo -n %c | xclip -i It doesn't work, apparently because my box doesn't have xclip on it. I prefer to use Klipper as my clip manager. I tried to insert klipper in place of xclip, but it still didn't work. Any ideas?

Re: [elinks-users] Forwarding links?
This looks like a pretty cool method, but I ran into trouble. I hope you will be patient with a newbie like me. I am running Kubuntu, by the way, the KDE desktop version of Ubuntu. First, it was giving me sh: xclip: command not found for xclip. So then I installed xclip. However, it's STILL giving me sh: bash: command not found I definitely installed xclip and when I try to reinstall it, it says I've already got the newest version, so I'm sure it's there. Any idea what's going on here?

Re: [elinks-users] Forwarding links?
This is weird. I don't get it. The command which xclip returns nothing. I just get the prompt again. But I watched it download and install, with the file size (a small one), then previously deselected file selected and then running through the rest of the install. Furthermore, when I do apt-get install xclip, I get the following message: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/seth# apt-get install xclip Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done xclip is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. which seems to indicate that it's already there. I don't know if I would affect matters, but I'm running klipper, the KDE clip manager. I don't know what it uses, but it's up at the moment. This is puzzling. If you have any ideas, I'd appreciate them. Best...

[elinks-users] Forwarding links?
The only thing that I regard as a downside to using elinks is the fact that it's considerably harder to forward links to friends. Good or bad, I tend to do this all day long as I run into web pages that various friends might find interesting. Some browsers, such as Opera, make it real easy to do this. I haven't found an easy way to forward a link from within elinks. The link copy function, if that's what it is, is clunky. Does anybody know of a quick and easy way to e-mail the link you're on in elinks to a friend?

[elinks-users] How to get color display?
I moved to the country where I am lucky to have electricity, much less Internet. I went from broadband to dial-up hell. Consequently, finding elinks has been a godsend. I am ability to use the web at a decent speed at home. It is a magnificent product. I am baffled, however, by how to get a color display on a terminal. The docs seem to be out of date. I am close to a total noob. I am using the newest version of Libranet, a Debian distro, and did an apt-get install to get elinks. Or maybe it was already here, I can't remember. At any rate, if somebody could tell me, step by step, exactly what settings I'm supposed to change in the elinks.conf file I would be grateful. I found that in the /etc directory. I can't find a file named features.conf anywhere. Also, is it still necessary to use xterm to get color?
