I've been using this for around 20 years.
It works well for browsing both the web and local files, though JavaScript makes it less useful now.
I have plugins to browse a lot of file types; an epub will open as an HTML file and let me read it in the same way I would anything else.
Browsing directories is fast, and I can jump between edbrowse and the shell easily.

Are you blind? (Edbrowse was created by a blind user.) I.e., is your vision bad enough that it makes sense to use audio or braille as your main modality of computer output?
