The Links2 Window should be in your dock, you have to press escape for the menu in the Links2 window. It can take a bit on a slower G3.
Got a tip for us?

in the computer with Panther, after selecting the graphics mode, Links2 closes, instead on a virtual machine with Leopard (which I did to compile some programs) Links2 remains open.
I'm not really sure what to say. It works on my Panther clamshell and Mac Mini G4.
It’s required a specific version of X11? The version of X11 on my iMac with panther is “X11 1.0 - XFree86 4.3.0”
If your Mac is too slow to run InterWeb then it's better - it'll work at 300Mhz!
There's no javascript and it'll wildly reformat web pages but depending on what you're doing it'll be fine.
You can also customise the colours:
I’ve installed the one there is inside the installer cd, anyway I’ll install that one you provided to me
After installed X11 from macintoshgarden now the graphics mode works! Thanks
THANKS SO MUCH for getting back to me on the results!
Also, everyone should expect a Links2 update soon...
Learn something new everyday. Dark mode? How did you do that?
Links2 is the only thing worth using on the clamshell on Panther.
Now, how do you get dark mode on PowerPC? I would like to use dark mode on my titanium under Leopard.
Within the Links2 preferences - rest of the GUI is down to Shapeshifter and a modified theme

@alex_free Is copying a URL supposed to work in the X11 version?
I can copy a Youtube URL in the Terminal version but not X11.

You have to copy it in the gui itself and then use the copy function in X11.app IIRC. Not great but that is how X11 works on Mac OS X.
Alert ! Link is dead.. when I click on this I get blank screen.. Tell me interwebPPC can't even access a simple website like that ? I am trying to forget I have intel macs and use my DLSD for all this, but this is a strike against the browser if it does NOT do what it is supposed to do.Shapeshifter with my modified theme which you can get here:

Why didn't InterwebPPC show that picture, instead it was a blank screen, so does this mean interwebPPC can't render a simple picture on a site ?
@Dronecatcher you could (ab)use Github releases to upload essentially unlimited files up to 2GBs each, just a suggestion.
Becaause that website has very high browser requirements for the task it is for.
Thanks, I do have my own cloud storage that I could link to but don't for security reasons - I use We Transfer for convenience and upload again if someone asks - although I do use Dropbox for stuff that I think warrants it.
Also, temporary links reflect the transitory nature of what I do - I've already stopped using Shapeshifter as it's buggy and not consistent.
Plus, I like to think when someone asks me for a file and I immediately give them the link, seven days is long enough for them to get the reply...
