I tried it anyway, and it downloaded and unzipped and deburped and
whatever else, right where Lee said it would be.

I guess I should check to see how much room is left....

At present I can't read it until I have managed to install the
lynx package I downloaded today from Sindi's site.

But there should be something in the stuff I've already
downloaded that will tell me how to do that.

LATER: the FAQ file said to 'untar' the file in question (lynx.tgz)
but 'untar' doesn't seem to be there.

Any alternative suggestions?
