Lynx is text based browser.  It will be a little faster than Netscape
etc. His net connection itself would have to be fast, I can't think so
much of difference between Lynx and NS speed. Look at the Menu at the
bottom of when you start. In general you `G'o to a URL site and select
the item and press D for `D'ownload. I don't know if it splits etc. you
got to `split' it later!
