I'm sure no-one gives a #$%^ but ...
you know what I HATE about glinks?

It's that cntrl-c does not copy text from a browser window, against the convention used by every other app in the known universe. Instead, cntrl-c CLOSES the window.

Only a sadist would configure this browser so annoyingly.

Try not to be too hard on the poor little browser....he's only small.
Ctrl+c to close is actually a very common key combo used in console applications. Links is essentially a console application....the gui is an added feature.
