It is a standard .tgz slackware package. What I first posted was just the
executable, while I was working on adding a few things to lynx.cfg. This
package includes lynx.cfg. It does not require a graphical interface, or
have any dependencies at all (which makes it a bit larger but more broadly
usable). The previously compiled lynx-ssl required libncurses.so.5 and
three other things. The previous lynx package that I posted did not do
ssl - I had to compile openssl first to get that part to work.

This is non-graphical, but if you have zgv (downloadable, I think from
James' site) you can view images as links. zgv.tgz is a slackware package
and it works with all my video cards (unlike seejpeg/svgalib). It has a
few dependencies.
