Text mode browsers for the doc (not app) web

On the frontpage of tilde.news today is a blog post from 12 years ago:

- retawq.sourceforge.net is 25k LoC. Last release 2006.

- netrik.sourceforge.net is 8K LOC. Last release 2009.

Both build fine and load my website. Neither supports https, but retawq might just need a few tweaks to TLS APIs.

Somewhere along the way we took a wrong turn w/software.
