you might like elinks as alternative to lynx, but with link hints.

and those shell aliases sound very similar to surfraw: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surfraw

As someone who uses Elinks/Links a lot, I'd highly recommend switching out Elinks with Links as the former is a now-deprecated fork of the latter [0][1]

I'm using felinks https://github.com/rkd77/elinks which recently renamed itself to elinks with the permission of one of the original developers apparently. I can't live without the scripting ability of elinks. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9901932

Elinks contains a SpiderMonkey fork which is unpatched and contains known vulnerabilities.

Quite interesting to read Assange wrote Surfraw in 2000.
