(I really liked the sarcastic answer from Stephen van Egmond
mentioning that this group is for what are mostly "text adventures" yet
proposing the FAQ only be readable from a graphical browser.)

Anyhow, I answered this in e-mail, but here's another comment I
didn't mention.

When I use a graphical browser, I use Netscape, but I don't think
you should use Netscape-specific abilities. It's really lame to run into
sites that require Netscape browsers.

Mostly because of the way my admin machine is set up (need to have
MacTCP set for an internal net and goddamned MacTCP requires a reboot to
switch to an external net), I have lately been using Lynx mainly with
Netscape sometimes.. I think there should be a Lynx-readable version.
