[links] french student starting his work on links

[pierre.haderer at enst-bretagne.fr]

hello,

My name is pierre, I'm a french student and I'm expected to use links  
(the graphic version) to a system called TAPA :
       http://departements.enst-bretagne.fr/info/recherche/sid/tapa.php
       (Sorry, this page is in french and had not been translated)
The goal of this project is to give aged people an easier access to  
their mails and their documents than the one given by a regular  
computer.

Links would be the browser that allow these operations.

My first step would be to understand links' code, so I downloaded it  
but I don't really know where to start my investigation.

Can someone tell me where I should start reading the code (which  
files) and maybe give me some complementary information on the way  
links is built ?

Thank you everybody for your attention.
