Suggestion: change "Lynx Enhanced Pages" to:
   (confusedly-named) Lynx Enhanced Pages

Why don't we change the name NOW to something that makes
more sense, that gives some HINT about what's there.

It's like variable-naming -- you want the name itself
to tell you what it does or is, and we all know how bad it
is to have to read a program with bad variable names --
not just things like "quux45" (that's bad enough),
but far worse ones in English that plainly say something
OTHER than what it really is or does.
