Ähm, IMO Lynx is really to basic, it doesn't even support frames and I like the
style with frames.
It's not the thing that I want to "through" Lynx users out, but Lynx would
restrict us to much. Okay, make a "friendly" frameless site, that tells the
user some interesting things about VisKProg and then tell him, if he wants to
read more about VisKProg he should visit the site with an browser that supports
frames.

We need screenshots, we need grafics to display some structures (I will prepare
them shortly for the documentation) and so on. AFAIK, there isn't any text
browser available, that can display grafics.

If we say, KFM is the lowest end, then we are allready restricted not to use
JavaScript, Java, ActiveVirus, etc.

>this is a site of a GRAPHICAL programming language
That's it. I don't know any "visual" browser that cannot display frames, unless
you go into the "dark ages" of the internet..

There is another questions open: Support GIF or PNG ?
I would like to use png, but this will restrict the users to some browsers. So
should we follow the "Burn all GIFs" idea?
