Rails - Jul 2007 - is there a Unix text-based browser I can use on my hosting providers box?

Hi,

Is there a Unix text-based browser I can use on my hosting providers box?
That is from my production site (Dreamhost) I could emulate a browser call
to my application in text form?

The main reason is I want to test initial response time from my application,
but discount the network lag.  I''m noticing that the first http hit to
my
application (if there has been a break in traffic to the RoR app) takes
several seconds to come back (~10-20 seconds) but then subsequently seems
ok.

Tks

homey while working on the japan-made ruby)            :)

I don''t know if this is built into w3m or if it''s an extension
packaged up
by a Debian developer, but on my Debian boxes I have the w3m-img package
installed. As long as I am using an xterm (doesn''t work on
Apple''s
Terminal.app, don''t know about other terminal emulators), I can run w3m
and
it displays images within the xterm. I don''t know how it''s
done, but it''s
quite nice.
