My system is rebuilding in massive quantities. Unfortunately, lynx overwrote my old /usr/local/etc/lynx.cfg, and there seem to be some changes in format. I used to have the line: EXTERNAL:http:xterm -tn xterm-color -T lynx -geometry 80x50 -e lynx %s & : TRUE which would launch a new xxterm with a lynx on a link, so that I ca work my way through news and launch the stories I want. It now seems to be ignored, and I don't see anything new that needs to be enabled. Persistent cookeis also seem to be a problem. I have set PERSISTENT_COOKIES: TRUE COOKIE_FILE:~/.lynx_cookies COOKIE_SAVE_FILE:~/.lynx_cookies It seems to be recognizing domains in COOKIE_ACCEPT_DOMAINS that are supposed to be able to set a cookie, but not reading the cookie in the next session. However, ~/.lynx_cookies shows a modification date of today. hawk -- What part of "non-negotiable" didn't you understand? /"\ ASCII ribbon campaign dochawk@psu.edu Smeal 178 (814) 375-4700 \ / against HTML mail These opinions will not be those of X and postings.
