Publisher review:Surfraw provides a fast unix command line interface to a variety of popular WWW search engines. Surfraw provides a fast unix command line interface to a variety of popular WWW search engines.
It reclaims google, altavista, babelfish, dejanews, freshmeat, research index, slashdot and many others from the false-prophet, pox-infested heathen lands of html-forms, placing these wonders where they belong, deep in unix heartland, as god loving extensions to the shell. Surfraw abstracts the browser away from input. Doing so lets it get on with what it's good at. Browsing.
Interpretation of linguistic forms is handed back to the shell, which is what it, and human beings are good at. Combined with netscape-remote or incremental text browsers, such as lynx, links or w3m, along with screen a Surfraw liberateur is capable of impressive navigation speeds.
Surfraw 2.2.1 is a C/C++ script for Navigation scripts design by Debian Surfraw-Devel Team.
