I want a tool to read the forum on the command line

I'm having trouble with aterm when using Xorg 7.73d in a VMware VM when open-vm-tools is running. The text becomes garbled when the window fills up. I read on the internet that a Heisenberg compensator may help with the instability. I'm having to use xterm for now. Please help.

Having fun at the expense of a spam bot, how mean of you Think of the bots.

I want a tool to read the forum on the command line

Maybe i create command line and fltk interface for this forum. Also you can read this forum with wap interface and command line browser like w3m.

Hm, I was proven wrong then, not a bot. Apologies aulitk.

Hmmm... I thought the reaction seemed a little hasty (but perhaps still on target).  Not being blind, I recognized the nature of reply #2 - but (and I'm sad to admit it) I still had to use google on the Heisenberg compensator.

In the mean time, aulitk -  have you been "lurking", and perhaps your forum stats belie your experience with Core?

With a text web browser there are often formatting problems (quotes for example), it would probably need quite a bit of fine-tuning to be usable. And then there is also latency: I'd prefer it to be more like email, where I get all messages cached on my computer.

I didn't get around doing anything likewise, one possible reason is that I planned to integrate it in this email-system which proved to never mature enough for my needs.

Hrm? Not sure what you mean, I happen to use mostly elinks (and occasionally links), not only to read forum, but also to post.

You're right, my other html to text conversion didn't know about the html blockquote tag.
if I do wget -qO- http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?action=recent;start=0 | html2text
the quotes are indented, thus everything is fine.

Hi again. I will not answer questions on this topic for now. For now, my project is an Simple Machines Forum browser with GUI. I will use Python and FLTK.
