Links Portable is a simple-to-use application that allows you to visit your favorite websites, save bookmarks and manage downloads, all with Command Line arguments. This program supports HTML4 websites and can display the content of the websites adapted as a text, in Command Line.

Given its nature and usage, Links Portable is very lightweight, requires a minimal amount of computer resources and even helps you reduce the bandwidth usage. Links Portable acts as any Web browser, except it does not display graphic elements. However, the program features several menus, which allow you to access its functions.

Links Portable supports simple keyboard shortcuts. For example, pressing the ‘g’ key prompts the URL address bar, while the ‘z’ and ‘x’ allow you to navigate back and forth through recently opened pages. You can reload the current page, save the address as a bookmark, save the URL to your computer or quickly clear the cache.

Links Portable can adapt the content of any website and display it as HTML code or as plain text. It can display tables, frames, break long lines, as well as display links to images or the names of the images. It can automatically number the links, move columns in the tables or ignore charset information sent by the server.

Link controls include downloading the link, following it, opening it in a new window or saving its location. The program also features a download manager, which can display the most recently transferred files.

Even though Links Portable does not feature a graphic interface, it can still be operated with the mouse, as all other GUI programs. The keyboard shortcuts facilitate the speedy operativity, but there are certain features that are customizable by mouse. You can change frames settings or establish a limit for connections to one host. Moreover, you can associate it with other programs, such as email clients or telnet tools.
