Edbrowse, a Command Line Editor Browser

Edbrowse is a unique program that combines the functions of an editor, browser, and mail client. Originally designed for blind users, sighted users have also found value in its scripting capabilities. With edbrowse, users can edit multiple files, render HTML, access web pages, and interact with databases without human intervention. Karl Dahlke, the primary developer of edbrowse, was inspired by his own experience as a blind computer user. The program is available in both Perl and C versions, with the C version offering more features like JavaScript support. Since version 3.8.0, edbrowse has been developed by a team of individuals. The program’s code and user interface can be dense, so it’s important to read the user’s guide before use. There is also a wiki and mailing lists available for users to get involved in the development process.
