-  <h1>ALTERNATIVE BINDING</h1>
+  <h2>Overview</h2>
 
-  <p>Lynx invokes a built-in <em>Line Editor</em> for entering
-  strings in response to prompts, in forms, and for email messages
-  if an external editor has not been defined. Additional
-  alternative key-bindings can be offered by configuring with
-  --enable-alt-bindings or by adding them in LYEditmap.c before
-  compiling Lynx. If available, they may be selected via the
-  'o'ptions menu, or by editing lineedit_mode in the '.lynxrc'
-  file.</p>
