+<PRE>
+       a      - Places the link that you are currently positioned
+                on into a personal <A HREF="bookmark_help.html">bookmark file</A>.
+
+       c      - Allows you to send a mail message to the owner
+                or maintainer of the data that you are currently
+                viewing.  In the case that no owner is known,
+                you cannot send a comment.
+
+       d      - Downloads the file pointed to by the current link
+                and displays an option menu allowing the file to
+                be saved or transferred by configurable options.
+                Can also be used when positioned on a form SUBMIT
+                button to download the reply to a form submission.
+
+       e      - Allows you to edit the current document if it is a
+                local file.
+
+       E      - Allows you to edit the current link's URL (or ACTION) and
+                use that as a <em>goto</em> URL.
+
+       g      - Allows you to enter any <a href="http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/demoweb/url-primer.html">URL</a> or filename that
+                you wish to view, and then <em>goto</em> it.
+
+       G      - Allows you to edit the current document's URL and use that
+                as a <em>goto</em> URL.
+
+     ? or H   - Hypertext help to explain how to navigate in
+                Lynx and use its features.
+
+       i      - Shows an index of files or subjects,
+                which may be changed in <em>lynx.cfg</em>.
+
+       j      - Allows you to enter a short name to goto an URL,
+                if a jumps file has been defined.  Press "?"
+                and ENTER to see the list of defined jump commands.
+
+       k      - Shows a list of key mappings.  Keys remapped in
+                "lynx.cfg" show up in this list.
+
+       l      - Brings up a list of references (links) in the current
+                document, which can be used for rapid access to the
+                links in large documents.
+
+       m      - Returns to the first screen and empties the
+                history stack.
+
+       p      - Brings up a list of <A HREF="print_help.html">print commands</A>.
+
+       o      - Brings up a list of settable <A HREF="option_help.html">options</A>.
+
+       q      - Quits Lynx. ('Q' quits without asking)
+
+       /      - Search for a string of characters in the current document
+                (case insensitive or case sensitive
+                depending on the <A HREF="option_help.html">options</A> set).
+
+       s      - Search through an external searchable indexed document.
+
+       n      - Move to the next instance of a search string if you
+                have searched previously.
+
+       v      - View a <A HREF="bookmark_help.html">Bookmark file</A>.
+
+       V      - Go to the <A HREF="visited_help.html">Visited Links Page</A>
+
+       x      - Force submission of form or link with no-cache.
+
+       z      - Abort a network transfer in progress.  If any partial
+                data has been transferred it will be displayed.
+
+  &lt;backspace&gt; - displays the <a href="history_help.html">History Page</A>.
+
+       =      - Show information about the file and link that you
+                are currently viewing.
+
+       \      - Toggles between viewing the HTML source of a
+                document and the rendered version of the document.
+
+       !      - Spawns your default operating system shell.
+
+       '      - Toggles "historical" vs minimal or valid comment parsing.
+                When historical, any close-angle-bracket will be treated
+                as a comment terminator, emulating the parsing bug in old
+                versions of Mosaic and Netscape, rather than validly
+                requiring pairs of two successive dashes to delimit
+                comments within the angle-brackets.
+
+       _      - Clears all authorization info for the current session.  Can
+                be used when leaving one's terminal without ending the Lynx
+                session, to guard against someone else retrieving protected
+                documents with previously entered username/password info.
+                Note that any protected documents that are still in cache
+                can still be accessed.
+
+       `      - Toggles minimal or valid comment parsing.  When minimal, any
+                two successive dashes followed by a close-angle-bracket will
+                be treated as a comment terminator, emulating the parsing bug
+                in Netscape v2.0.  If historical comment parsing is set, that
+                will override minimal or valid comment parsing.
+
+       *      - Toggles image_links mode on and off.  When on, links will
+                be created for all images, including inlines.
+
+       @      - Toggles raw 8-bit translations or CJK mode on and off, only
+                for documents which does not specify character set explicitly.
+                Should be on when the document's charset matches the
+                display character set, and otherwise off so that 8-bit
+                characters will be translated by Lynx with respect to the
+                Assumed document charset, using approximations if necessary
+                (see <A HREF="option_help.html">options</A>).
+
+       [      - Toggles pseudo_inlines mode on and off.  When on, inline
+                images which have no ALT string specified will have an
+                "[INLINE]" pseudo-ALT string inserted in the Lynx display.
+                When off, they will be treated as having ALT="" (i.e.,
+                they'll be ignored).  If image_links mode is toggled on,
+                the pseudo-ALT strings will be restored, to serve as links
+                to the inline images' sources.
+
+       ]      - Sends a HEAD request for the current document or link.  It
+                applies only to documents or links (or form submit buttons)
+                of http servers.  A statusline message will notify you if
+                the context for this command was inappropriate.  The HEAD
+                requests always are sent to the http server, i.e., Lynx
+                does not retrieve any previous server replies from its
+                cache.  Note that for form submissions, http servers vary
+                in whether they'll treat HEAD requests as valid and return
+                the CGI script's headers, or treat it as invalid and return
+                an error message.
+
+       "      - Toggles valid or "soft" double-quote parsing.  When soft,
+                a close-angle-bracket will serve as both a close-double-
+                quote and close-tag, emulating the parsing bug in old
+                versions of Mosaic and Netscape.
+
+     CTRL-R   - Reloads the current document and resets the display.
+
+     CTRL-V   - Switches to an alternative way of parsing HTML documents.
+                This may help to get a more readable rendering of some
+                documents with invalidly placed HTML tags, <A
+                HREF="option_help.html#tagsoup">more details</A>.
+
+     CTRL-W   - Resets or cleans up the display.
+
+     CTRL-U   - Clears text from an input field or prompt.
+
+     CTRL-G   - Cancels any input prompt, mail message or data transfer.
+
+     CTRL-T   - Toggles trace mode on and off.
+
+       ;      - Views the Lynx Trace Log for the current session.
+
+     CTRL-K   - Invokes the Cookie Jar Page.
+
+     numbers  - Lynx offers other, advanced navigation features when
+                numbers are used to invoke the
+                  <a href="follow_help.html"
+                  >Follow link (or goto link or page) number:</a> or
+                  <a href="follow_help.html#select-option"
+                  >Select option (or page) number:</a>
+                prompts.
