I have set up lynx.cfg to use zgv as the viewer for images,
hotlist.html as the start page (it could be lynx_bookmarks.html instead -
just move a #), pdftotext as a downloader for pdf files (with a choice of
whether to view with less which does imperfect line wrap but does not
display upper ASCII as characters; or pico which in our version does not
do line wrap at all), and antiword as a viewer for .doc files (with pico
as the viewer). James suggested using pico rather than less, so that you
can rename the file (from doc.txt or pdf.txt, which will be overwritten)
and save it. You can also simply download these files and import them
into xpdf or abiword.

Any other suggestions about what to put into lynx.cfg?

I want to change whatever needs changing so that the default option will
be to show images as links. As things are, you cannot save this option to
disk. The default is 'as labels'.

Since nobody but James showed any interest in lynx, I will not wait
long for answers. I might also offer this to linuxpackages.net.
