Commandline vimperator-like browser

browsercommand linevimperator

When browsing normally I use Firefox with Vimperator installed, which gives you vim-like key bindings so you can browse without the mouse.

However, every now and again I have to browse from the commandline (often through SSH), and I've been using lynx for this, but it feels horribly inefficient after Vimperator – which would be perfect for doing this. Is there a CLI browser (text only, obviously), that works like Vimperator does?

Best Answer

You can continue to use lynx for this. To change the key bindings, open up lynx, hit 'o' for options, and change the option VI keys[sic](under the third section) to ON.
