How to make a guy feel better : for once, I knew
something.
Both have been doing that for years; I depend on them,
heavily. You can configure what browser (al)Pine uses, too; I
recommend Dillo. It's very fast, and very safe; if it doesn't
display a site, you can then decide whether you want to switch to
some great sea-cow of a browser, or just skip it.
