I fixed the following already.  I had changed the file associations in 
links2 -g setup, which used to read X Run on terminal and X Run in 
X-window to read instead X Block terminal, when using zgv as the viewer 
instead of xli, because I was experimenting on this computer with a way to 
use zgv as the viewer on the laptop that will only do 4 colors in X. Zgv 
is based on svgalib, which does work there.  Eventually I upgraded the 
library on the laptop and used the Delilinux links2 which is slightly 
older but works without X.

I still don't know how to use httpd.
