text-based web browser in FC5

I would like to have something like "lynx" (text-based web browser) to check my web sites up from time to time. I have FC5 installed and would like to check whether there's similar tools on FC5. During the installation, I've opted to install the "text-based web browser", which command can I invoke to use it??

Thanks.

If you prefer lynx it is also available through Applications->Add/Remove Software or by running the text command

yum install lynx
