too much typo in my last post...

coming from DOS, mc is a good tool of transition.  I
use it.

I have read the mails on this topic already so here is
my suggestion.

At mc:
1. Press F9
2. Select 'Commands'
3. Choose 'Extension file edit'

This opens the mc bindings, sort of like mime.cfg of Arachne.

look for:

#html
regex (...)

under it, there would be a line which is exactly or similar to:

View=%view{ascii} lynx -dump -froce_html %f;

uncomment this line with '#'.  '#' is kinda like 'REM' in autoexec.bat.
example:

# View=%view{ascii} lynx -dump -force_html %f;

then under it, type, "View=%view{ascii} links -dump %f;"

so that it looks like below:

# View=%view{ascii} lynx -dump -froce_html %f;
View=%view{ascii} links -dump %f;

If it works, then you can uninstall lynx to save space.

If it does not, then you need to replace:

# View=%view{ascii} lynx -dump -froce_html %f;
View=%view{ascii} links -dump %f;

back to:

View=%view{ascii} lynx -dump -froce_html %f;

and bear with lynx.
