LYNX-DEV Installing Lynx

[Christopher R. Maden]

Compared to inews, building Lynx is trivial.  Congratulations to
everyone who worked on the 2.6 release.

I had one problem with make install; at least for me (with Solaris
2.4), install wouldn't accept the parameters as given in Makefile.
Here's a patch that worked for me; maybe it should be rolled in as an
install-solaris2 target.

!       rm -f lynx.1
!       $(installdoc) $(cfg) lynx.cfg

Now to get to the real work...
