Piping curl into a pager

E.g.
$ curl www.google.com | sed '/<[^>]*>/d' | less

Could this be used as the basis for a text-based browser? Curl has POST and cookies support too, and Guile Scheme could be used instead of javascript.

First of all, you meant /<\s*a \s*href\s*=\s*"([^"]*)"/
second, that won't work if the tag has any other attribute before href. So it only works for basic html.
