It will display hypertext markup - language (HTML) documents containing links to files residing on the - local system, as well as files residing on remote systems running - Gopher, HTTP, FTP, WAIS, and NNTP servers. Current versions of Lynx - run on Unix, VMS, Windows 95/NT, 386DOS and OS/2 EMX. - - Lynx can be used to access information on the World Wide Web, or to - build information systems intended primarily for local access. For - example, Lynx has been used to build several Campus Wide Information - Systems (CWIS). In addition, Lynx can be used to build systems - isolated within a single LAN. - -2 Options - At start up, Lynx will load any local file or remote URL specified at - the command line. For help with URLs, press "?" or "H" while running - Lynx. Then follow the link titled, "Help on URLs." - - If more than one local file or remote URL is listed on the command - line, Lynx will open only the last interactively. All of the names - (local files and remote URLs) are added to the G)oto history. - - Lynx uses only long option names. Option names can begin with double - dash as well, underscores and dashes can be intermixed in option names - (in the reference below options are with one dash before them and with - underscores). - - Lynx provides many command-line options. Some options require a value - (string, number or keyword). These are noted in the reference below. - The other options set boolean values in the program. There are three - types of boolean options: set, unset and toggle. If no option value is - given, these have the obvious meaning: set (to true), unset (to false), - or toggle (between true/false). For any of these, an explicit value - can be given in different forms to allow for operating system - constraints, e.g., - -center:off - -center=off - -center- - Lynx recognizes "1", "+", "on" and "true" for true values, and "0", - "-", "off" and "false" for false values. Other option-values are - ignored. - - The default boolean, number and string option values that are compiled - into Lynx are displayed in the help-message provided by lynx -help. - Some of those may differ according to how Lynx was built; see the help - message itself for these values. The -help option is processed in the - third pass of options-processing, so any option which sets a value, as - well as runtime configuration values are reflected in the help-message. - - - If the argument is only `-', then Lynx expects to receive the - arguments from the standard input. This is to allow for the - potentially very long command line that can be associated with - the -get_data or -post_data arguments (see below). It can also - be used to avoid having sensitive information in the invoking - command line (which would be visible to other processes on most - systems), especially when the -auth or -pauth options are used. - - -accept_all_cookies - accept all cookies. - - -anonymous - apply restrictions for anonymous account, see also - -restrictions. - - -assume_charset=MIMEname - charset for documents that don't specify it. - - -assume_local_charset=MIMEname - charset assumed for local files, i.e., files which Lynx creates - such as internal pages for the options menu. - - -assume_unrec_charset=MIMEname - use this instead of unrecognized charsets. - - -auth=ID:PASSWD - set authorization ID and password for protected documents at - startup. Be sure to protect any script files which use this - switch. - - -base prepend a request URL comment and BASE tag to text/html outputs - for -source dumps. - - -bibp=URL - specify a local bibp server (default http://bibhost/). - - -blink forces high intensity background colors for color mode, if - available and supported by the terminal. This applies to the - slang library (for a few terminal emulators), or to OS/2 EMX - with ncurses. - - -book use the bookmark page as the startfile. The default or command - line startfile is still set for the Main screen command, and - will be used if the bookmark page is unavailable or blank. - - -buried_news - toggles scanning of news articles for buried references, and - converts them to news links. Not recommended because email - addresses enclosed in angle brackets will be converted to false - news links, and uuencoded messages can be trashed. - - -cache=NUMBER - set the NUMBER of documents cached in memory. The default is - 10. - - -case enable case-sensitive string searching. - - -center - Toggle center alignment in HTML TABLE. - - -cfg=FILENAME - specifies a Lynx configuration file other than the default - lynx.cfg. - - -child exit on left-arrow in startfile, and disable save to disk and - associated print/mail options. - - -child_relaxed - exit on left-arrow in startfile, but allow save to disk and - associated print/mail options. - - -cmd_log=FILENAME - write keystroke commands and related information to the - specified file. - - -cmd_script=FILENAME - read keystroke commands from the specified file. You can use - the data written using the -cmd_log option. Lynx will ignore - other information which the command-logging may have written to - the logfile. Each line of the command script contains either a - comment beginning with "#", or a keyword: - - exit causes the script to stop, and forces Lynx to exit - immediately. - - key the character value, in printable form. Cursor and other - special keys are given as names, e.g., "Down Arrow". - Printable 7-bit ASCII codes are given as-is, and hexadecimal - values represent other 8-bit codes. - - set followed by a "name=value" allows one to override values set - in the lynx.cfg file. - - -color forces color mode on, if available. Default color control - sequences which work for many terminal types are assumed if the - terminal capability description does not specify how to handle - color. Lynx needs to be compiled with the slang library for - this flag, it is equivalent to setting the COLORTERM environment - variable. (If color support is instead provided by a color- - capable curses library like ncurses, Lynx relies completely on - the terminal description to determine whether color mode is - possible, and this flag is not needed and thus unavailable.) A - saved show_color=always setting found in a .lynxrc file at - startup has the same effect. A saved show_color=never found in - .lynxrc on startup is overridden by this flag. - - -connect_timeout=N - Sets the connection timeout, where N is given in seconds. - - -cookie_file=FILENAME - specifies a file to use to read cookies. If none is specified, - the default value is ~/.lynx_cookies for most systems, but - ~/cookies for MS-DOS. - - -cookie_save_file=FILENAME - specifies a file to use to store cookies. If none is specified, - the value given by -cookie_file is used. - - -cookies - toggles handling of Set-Cookie headers. - - -core toggles forced core dumps on fatal errors. Turn this option off - to ask Lynx to force a core dump if a fatal error occurs. - - -crawl with -traversal, output each page to a file. with -dump, format - output as with -traversal, but to the standard output. - - -curses_pads - toggles the use of curses "pad" feature which supports - left/right scrolling of the display. - - -debug_partial - separate incremental display stages with MessageSecs delay - - -delay add DebugSecs delay after each progress-message - - -display=DISPLAY - set the display variable for X rexec-ed programs. - - -display_charset=MIMEname - set the charset for the terminal output. - - -dont_wrap_pre - inhibit wrapping of text in 
 when -dump'ing and -crawl'ing,
-              mark wrapped lines in interactive session.
-
-       -dump  dumps  the  formatted  output  of  the default document or those
-              specified on  the  command  line  to  standard  output.   Unlike

-              POST  when  the  documents  they  returned  are  sought with the
-              PREV_DOC command or from the History List.
-
-       -rlogin
-              disable recognition of rlogin commands.
-
-       -scrollbar
-              toggles showing scrollbar.
-
-       -scrollbar_arrow
-              toggles showing arrows at ends of the scrollbar.
-
-       -selective
-              require .www_browsable files to browse directories.
-
-       -session=FILENAME
-              resumes from specified file on startup and saves session to that
-              file on exit.
-
-       -sessionin=FILENAME
-              resumes session from specified file.
-
-       -sessionout=FILENAME
-              saves session to specified file.
-
-       -short_url
-              show  very  long URLs in the status line with "..." to represent
-              the portion which cannot be displayed.  The beginning and end of
-              the URL are displayed, rather than suppressing the end.
-
-       -show_cfg
-              Print the configuration settings, e.g., as read from "lynx.cfg",
-              and exit.
-
-       -show_cursor
-              If enabled the cursor will not  be  hidden  in  the  right  hand
-              corner  but  will  instead  be  positioned  at  the start of the
-              currently selected link.  Show cursor is the default for systems
-              without  FANCY_CURSES  capabilities.   The default configuration
-              can be changed in userdefs.h  or  lynx.cfg.   The  command  line
-              switch toggles the default.
-
-       -show_rate
-              If  enabled  the  transfer  rate  is  shown in bytes/second.  If
-              disabled, no transfer  rate  is  shown.   Use  lynx.cfg  or  the
-              options menu to select KB/second and/or ETA.
-
-       -soft_dquotes
-              toggles  emulation  of  the  old  Netscape  and Mosaic bug which
-              treated `>' as a co-terminator for double-quotes and tags.
-
-       -source
-              works the same as  dump  but  outputs  HTML  source  instead  of
-              formatted text.  For example
-
-              lynx -source . >foo.html
-
-              generates   HTML   source  listing  the  files  in  the  current
-              directory.  Each file is marked  by  an  HREF  relative  to  the
-              parent  directory.   Add  a  trailing  slash  to make the HREF's
-              relative to the current directory:
-
-              lynx -source ./ >foo.html
-
-       -stack_dump
-              disable SIGINT cleanup handler
-
-       -startfile_ok
-              allow non-http startfile and homepage with -validate.
-
-       -stderr
-              When dumping a document using -dump or  -source,  Lynx  normally
-              does  not  display  alert  (error)  messages that you see on the
-              screen in the status line.  Use the -stderr option to tell  Lynx
-              to write these messages to the standard error.
-
-       -stdin read the startfile from standard input (UNIX only).
-
-       -syslog=text
-              information for syslog call.
-
-       -syslog-urls
-              log requested URLs with syslog.
-
-       -tagsoup
-              initialize parser, using Tag Soup DTD rather than SortaSGML.
-
-       -telnet
-              disable recognition of telnet commands.
-
-       -term=TERM
-              tell  Lynx what terminal type to assume it is talking to.  (This
-              may be useful for remote  execution,  when,  for  example,  Lynx
-              connects  to  a remote TCP/IP port that starts a script that, in
-              turn, starts another Lynx process.)
-
-       -timeout=N
-              For win32, sets the network read-timeout, where N  is  given  in
-              seconds.
-
-       -tlog  toggles  between  using  a  Lynx  Trace Log and stderr for trace
-              output from the session.
-
-       -tna   turns on "Textfields Need Activation" mode.
-
-       -trace turns on Lynx trace mode.  Destination of trace  output  depends
-              on -tlog.
-
-       -trace_mask=value
-              turn  on  optional  traces, which may result in very large trace
-              files.  Logically OR the values to combine options:
-              1=SGML character parsing states
-              2=color-style
-              4=TRST (table layout)
-              8=config  (lynx.cfg,  .lynxrc,  .lynx-keymaps,  mime.types   and
-              mailcap contents)
-              16=binary string copy/append, used in form data construction.
-              32=cookies
-              64=character sets
-              128=GridText parsing
-              256=timing
-
-       -traversal
-              traverse  all http links derived from startfile.  When used with
-              -crawl, each link that begins with the same string as  startfile
-              is  output to a file, intended for indexing.  See CRAWL.announce
-              for more information.
-
-       -trim_input_fields
-              trim input text/textarea fields in forms.
-
-       -underline_links
-              toggles use of underline/bold attribute for links.
-
-       -underscore
-              toggles use of _underline_ format in dumps.
-
-       -use_mouse
-              turn on mouse support, if available.  Clicking  the  left  mouse
-              button  on a link traverses it.  Clicking the right mouse button
-              pops back.  Click on the top line to scroll up.   Click  on  the
-              bottom  line to scroll down.  The first few positions in the top
-              and bottom line may invoke additional functions.  Lynx  must  be
-              compiled  with  ncurses  or  slang  to support this feature.  If
-              ncurses is used, clicking the middle  mouse  button  pops  up  a
-              simple  menu.  Mouse clicks may only work reliably while Lynx is
-              idle waiting for input.
-
-       -useragent=Name
-              set alternate Lynx User-Agent header.
-
-       -validate
-              accept only  http  URLs  (for  validation).   Complete  security
-              restrictions also are implemented.
-
-       -verbose
-              toggle  [LINK],  [IMAGE] and [INLINE] comments with filenames of
-              these images.
-
-       -version
-              print version information, and exit.
-
-       -vikeys
-              enable vi-like key movement.
-
-       -wdebug
-              enable Waterloo tcp/ip packet debug (print to  watt  debugfile).
-              This  applies  only  to  DOS  versions  compiled  with WATTCP or
-              WATT-32.
-
-       -width=NUMBER
-              number of columns for formatting of dumps, default is 80.   This
-              is  limited  by  the  number of columns that Lynx could display,
-              typically 1024 (the MAX_LINE symbol).
-
-       -with_backspaces
-              emit backspaces in output if -dump'ing or -crawl'ing (like `man'
-              does)
-
-       -xhtml_parsing
-              tells Lynx that it can ignore certain tags which have no content
-              in an XHTML 1.0 document.  For example "
" will be discarded.
-
-2 Commands
-       o  Use Up arrow and Down arrow to scroll through hypertext links.
-
-       o  Right arrow or Return will follow a highlighted hypertext link.
-
-       o  Left Arrow will retreat from a link.
-
-       o  Type  "H"  or  "?"  for  online  help and descriptions of key-stroke
-          commands.
-
-       o  Type "K" for a complete  list  of  the  current  key-stroke  command
-          mappings.
-
-2 Environment
-       In  addition  to various "standard" environment variables such as HOME,
-       PATH, USER, DISPLAY, TMPDIR, etc, Lynx utilizes  several  Lynx-specific
-       environment variables, if they exist.
-
-       Others  may  be created or modified by Lynx to pass data to an external
-       program, or for other reasons.  These are listed separately below.
-
-       See also the sections on SIMULATED  CGI  SUPPORT  and  NATIVE  LANGUAGE
-       SUPPORT, below.
-
-       Note:   Not  all  environment variables apply to all types of platforms
-       supported by Lynx, though most do.  Feedback on  platform  dependencies
-       is solicited.
-
-       Environment Variables Used By Lynx:
-
-       COLORTERM           If set, color capability for the terminal is forced
-                           on at startup time.  The actual value  assigned  to
-                           the  variable  is  ignored.   This variable is only
-                           meaningful  if  Lynx  was  built  using  the  slang
-                           screen-handling library.
-
-       LYNX_CFG            This  variable,  if  set, will override the default
-                           location and name of the global configuration  file
-                           (normally,   lynx.cfg)  that  was  defined  by  the
-                           LYNX_CFG_FILE  constant  in  the  userdefs.h  file,
-                           during  installation.   See the userdefs.h file for
-                           more information.
-
-       LYNX_HELPFILE       If set, this variable overrides the compiled-in URL
-                           and  configuration file URL for the Lynx help file.
-
-       LYNX_LOCALEDIR      If set, this  variable  overrides  the  compiled-in
-                           location  of  the  locale  directory which contains
-                           native language (NLS) message text.
-
-       LYNX_LSS            This variable, if set, specifies  the  location  of
-                           the   default  Lynx  character  style  sheet  file.
-                           [Currently only meaningful if Lynx was built  using
-                           experimental color style support.]
-
-       LYNX_SAVE_SPACE     This  variable,  if  set, will override the default
-                           path prefix for files saved to disk that is defined
-                           in  the  lynx.cfg  SAVE_SPACE:  statement.  See the
-                           lynx.cfg file for more information.
-
-       LYNX_TEMP_SPACE     This variable, if set, will  override  the  default
-                           path  prefix  for  temporary files that was defined
-                           during installation, as well as any value that  may
-                           be assigned to the TMPDIR variable.
-
-       MAIL                This variable specifies the default inbox Lynx will
-                           check for new mail, if such checking is enabled  in
-                           the lynx.cfg file.
-
-       NEWS_ORGANIZATION   This  variable, if set, provides the string used in
-                           the Organization: header of USENET  news  postings.
-                           It  will  override  the setting of the ORGANIZATION
-                           environment variable, if it is also  set  (and,  on
-                           UNIX, the contents of an /etc/organization file, if
-                           present).
-
-       NNTPSERVER          If set, this variable specifies  the  default  NNTP
-                           server  that  will  be used for USENET news reading
-                           and posting with Lynx, via news: URL's.
-
-       ORGANIZATION        This variable, if set, provides the string used  in
-                           the  Organization:  header of USENET news postings.
-                           On UNIX,  it  will  override  the  contents  of  an
-                           /etc/organization file, if present.
-
-       PROTOCOL_proxy      Lynx supports the use of proxy servers that can act
-                           as firewall gateways and caching servers.  They are
-                           preferable   to  the  older  gateway  servers  (see
-                           WWW_access_GATEWAY, below).  Each protocol used  by
-                           Lynx,  (http,  ftp,  gopher,  etc),  can  be mapped
-                           separately by setting environment variables of  the
-                           form    PROTOCOL_proxy    (literally:   http_proxy,
-                           ftp_proxy,       gopher_proxy,       etc),       to
-                           "http://some.server.dom:port/".    See  Lynx  Users
-                           Guide for additional details and examples.
-
-       SSL_CERT_DIR        Set   to   the   directory    containing    trusted
-                           certificates.
-
-       SSL_CERT_FILE       Set  to the full path and filename for your file of
-                           trusted certificates.
-
-       WWW_access_GATEWAY  Lynx still supports use of  gateway  servers,  with
-                           the   servers  specified  via  "WWW_access_GATEWAY"
-                           variables (where "access" is lower case and can  be
-                           "http",  "ftp",  "gopher"  or "wais"), however most
-                           gateway servers have been discontinued.  Note  that
-                           you do not include a terminal `/' for gateways, but
-                           do  for   proxies   specified   by   PROTOCOL_proxy
-                           environment  variables.   See  Lynx Users Guide for
-                           details.
-
-       WWW_HOME            This variable, if set, will  override  the  default
-                           startup   URL   specified   in   any  of  the  Lynx
-                           configuration files.
-
-       Environment Variables Set or Modified By Lynx:
-
-       LYNX_PRINT_DATE     This variable is set by the Lynx p(rint)  function,
-                           to   the   Date:  string  seen  in  the  document's
-                           "Information about" page (= cmd), if  any.   It  is
-                           created  for use by an external program, as defined
-                           in a lynx.cfg PRINTER:  definition  statement.   If
-                           the  field  does  not  exist  for the document, the
-                           variable is set to a null string under UNIX, or "No
-                           Date" under VMS.
-
-       LYNX_PRINT_LASTMOD  This  variable is set by the Lynx p(rint) function,
-                           to the Last Mod:  string  seen  in  the  document's
-                           "Information  about"  page  (= cmd), if any.  It is
-                           created for use by an external program, as  defined
-                           in  a  lynx.cfg  PRINTER: definition statement.  If
-                           the field does not  exist  for  the  document,  the
-                           variable is set to a null string under UNIX, or "No
-                           LastMod" under VMS.
-
-       LYNX_PRINT_TITLE    This variable is set by the Lynx p(rint)  function,
-                           to  the  Linkname:  string  seen  in the document's
-                           "Information about" page (= cmd), if  any.   It  is
-                           created  for use by an external program, as defined
-                           in a lynx.cfg PRINTER:  definition  statement.   If
-                           the  field  does  not  exist  for the document, the
-                           variable is set to a null string under UNIX, or "No
-                           Title" under VMS.
-
-       LYNX_PRINT_URL      This  variable is set by the Lynx p(rint) function,
-                           to  the  URL:  string  seen   in   the   document's
-                           "Information  about"  page  (= cmd), if any.  It is
-                           created for use by an external program, as  defined
-                           in  a  lynx.cfg  PRINTER: definition statement.  If
-                           the field does not  exist  for  the  document,  the
-                           variable is set to a null string under UNIX, or "No
-                           URL" under VMS.
-
-       LYNX_TRACE          If set, causes Lynx to write a trace file as if the
-                           -trace option were supplied.
-
-       LYNX_TRACE_FILE     If set, overrides the compiled-in name of the trace
-                           file, which is either  Lynx.trace  or  LY-TRACE.LOG
-                           (the  latter  on the DOS platform).  The trace file
-                           is in either case relative to the home directory.
-
-       LYNX_VERSION        This variable is always set by  Lynx,  and  may  be
-                           used  by an external program to determine if it was
-                           invoked by Lynx.  See  also  the  comments  in  the
-                           distribution's  sample  mailcap  file, for notes on
-                           usage in such a file.
-
-       TERM                Normally,  this  variable  is  used  by   Lynx   to
-                           determine  the  terminal  type being used to invoke
-                           Lynx.  If, however, it is unset at startup time (or
-                           has  the value "unknown"), or if the -term command-
-                           line option is used (see  OPTIONS  section  above),
-                           Lynx  will  set  or  modify  its  value to the user
-                           specified terminal type  (for  the  Lynx  execution
-                           environment).   Note:  If set/modified by Lynx, the
-                           values of  the  LINES  and/or  COLUMNS  environment
-                           variables may also be changed.
-
-2 Simulated Cgi Support
-       If built with the cgi-links option enabled, Lynx allows access to a cgi
-       script directly without the need for an http daemon.
-
-       When executing such  "lynxcgi  scripts"  (if  enabled),  the  following
-       variables may be set for simulating a CGI environment:
-
-       CONTENT_LENGTH
-
-       CONTENT_TYPE
-
-       DOCUMENT_ROOT
-
-       HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET
-
-       HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE
-
-       HTTP_USER_AGENT
-
-       PATH_INFO
-
-       PATH_TRANSLATED
-
-       QUERY_STRING
-
-       REMOTE_ADDR
-
-       REMOTE_HOST
-
-       REQUEST_METHOD
-
-       SERVER_SOFTWARE
-
-       Other  environment  variables  are  not inherited by the script, unless
-       they  are  provided  via  a  LYNXCGI_ENVIRONMENT   statement   in   the
-       configuration  file.   See  the  lynx.cfg file, and the (draft) CGI 1.1
-       Specification 
-       for the definition and usage of these variables.
-
-       The  CGI  Specification,  and other associated documentation, should be
-       consulted for general information on CGI script programming.
-
-2 Native Language Support
-       If configured and installed with Native  Language  Support,  Lynx  will
-       display status and other messages in your local language.  See the file
-       ABOUT_NLS in the source distribution, or at your local  GNU  site,  for
-       more information about internationalization.
-
-       The  following  environment  variables  may  be  used  to alter default
-       settings:
-
-       LANG                This variable, if set, will  override  the  default
-                           message language.  It is an ISO 639 two-letter code
-                           identifying the language.  Language codes  are  NOT
-                           the same as the country codes given in ISO 3166.
-
-       LANGUAGE            This  variable,  if  set, will override the default
-                           message language.  This is a GNU extension that has
-                           higher  priority  for  setting  the message catalog
-                           than LANG or LC_ALL.
-
-       LC_ALL              and
-
-       LC_MESSAGES         These variables, if  set,  specify  the  notion  of
-                           native language formatting style.  They are POSIXly
-                           correct.
-
-       LINGUAS             This  variable,  if  set  prior  to  configuration,
-                           limits  the installed languages to specific values.
-                           It is a space-separated list of  two-letter  codes.
-                           Currently, it is hard-coded to a wish list.
-
-       NLSPATH             This  variable,  if set, is used as the path prefix
-                           for message catalogs.
-

-       Note that man page availability and section numbering is somewhat platform
-       dependent, and may vary from the above references.
-
-       A  section  shown as (GNU), is intended to denote that the topic may be
-       available via an info page, instead of a man page (i.e., try "info subject",
-       rather than "man subject").
-
-       A  section shown as (?) denotes that documentation on the topic exists,
-       but is not part of an established documentation retrieval  system  (see
-       the  distribution files associated with the topic, or contact your System
-       Administrator for further information).
-
-2 Acknowledgments
-       Lynx has incorporated code from a variety of  sources  along  the  way.
-       The  earliest versions of Lynx included code from Earl Fogel of Comput-
-       ing Services at the University of Saskatchewan, who implemented  HYPER-
-       REZ  in the Unix environment.  HYPERREZ was developed by Niel Larson of
-       Think.com and served as the model  for  the  early  versions  of  Lynx.
-       Those versions also incorporated libraries from the Unix Gopher clients
-       developed at the University of Minnesota, and  the  later  versions  of
-       Lynx  rely  on the WWW client library code developed by Tim Berners-Lee
-       and the WWW community.  Also a special thanks to  Foteos  Macrides  who
-       ported much of Lynx to VMS and did or organized most of its development
-       since the departures of Lou Montulli and Garrett Blythe from  the  Uni-
-       versity  of Kansas in the summer of 1994 through the release of v2.7.2,
-       and to everyone on the net who has contributed  to  Lynx's  development
-       either directly (through patches, comments or bug reports) or indirect-
-       ly (through inspiration and development of other systems).
