* Linux command:
*# (optional if lynx was not installed) {{kbd | key = <nowiki>yum install lynx</nowiki>}} for CentOS / {{kbd | key = <nowiki>sudo apt-get install lynx</nowiki>}} for Ubuntu<ref>[http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/install-and-use-lynx-on-ubuntu/ Install and Use Lynx Browser on Ubuntu]</ref>
