It doesnot cause trouble, it only has limited URL support. Instead of
following redirections or parsing error responses it just outputs them.

Sorry, the grouping must be

  ([e]links, lynx, or w3m) or html2txt and (wget or curl)

i.e. curl without html2txt (or another tool for this conversion) is not
sufficient.


OTOH, many of the jed-extra modes contain dependencies or recommendations
not mirrored in the suggestions.
