I should have been a little clearer.  If you use the mac operating
system all you need is one button.  If your just learning you should
probably start w/ 1 button and see how it works.  Get a feel for it. 
Figure out what you'd need 4 buttons for.
If you have a program that can use 4 buttons.  Go for it.  Most don't.

A 2 button is perfect because then you have the control-click on the
mouse.  4 buttons can be used but are not necessary.
Thats what I was trying to say.  I didn't quite get it though.

Maybe just adding graphical support to lynx would be easier.

It would be nice to have a browser around that was up to date and was
built for the older systems.

Another item added to the list of things to do when I finally learn to
program.  Create a fully functional browser that is up to date and
optimized for 68k machines.
I have a lot of other things on this list.  I should probably get
crackin' on C.
