lynx (does not seem to really save the cookie) 
>

Lynx 2.8.6 (uclibc compiled by Karolis) is set NOT to keep 
persistent cookies.  I changed this line in lynx.cfg and it still does not 
retain cookies.  Lynx.cfg says this may be due to how it is compiled.

The lynx 2.8.51 that I compiled (static against glibc 2.2.5) has the same 
problem.  I used the lynx.cfg as above with persistent cookies set to 
true.  (symlinked from /etc/lynx.cfg to /usr/lib/lynx.cfg).

Dillo by default does not accept cookies.  Netrik is too strange for a 
beginner.  Opera won't run well in 16MB RAM and 120MHz.

Since I don't want to recompile lynx right now the user will have to learn 
to type her login and password each time.

Unless links2 can be set to accept persistent cookies.
I downloaded the user manual from the link in the program.  It is large 
and fairly recent and has quite a lot of Czech embedded in it.  I offered 
to edit the English.  No mention of cookies.

There is now a version 2.2 with a few minor bugfixes since 2.1pre33 and 
javascript still gone.
