I don't understand what you're using to start your browser. What's
querybts?
Console programs generally need to be run in a terminal, e.g.:
export X11BROWSER='rxvt -T w3m -e w3m'
My own current preference is to use screen to allow multiplexing the
text browser session:
( export SHELL=w3m; rxvt -T w3m -e screen w3m )
...and as you might guess, I happen to like the w3m text-mode browser,
though it's largely similar to links.
Peace.
