Do you mean during the install or after the install?

'Cause if it's after the install (remember -- installing networking
happens almost last!) then lynx can be removed from the ISO. It's a
simple matter to `cast lynx`.

Also... we could go back to a system we had before (the KS thing) which
I thought was cool... there were "fake" system commands installed,
little shell scripts that automatically cast the program or package in
question when they were first run. So, for instance, if you typed
$ lynx

and lynx wasn't installed, it would cast automatically. I can think of
several commands that this would be very handy for.

Not sure why we got away from that, but with all that's happened... :-)
