Why?  To avoid the lookup on NYU for the lynx-enhanced-pages each time
you startup Lynx?  (Which, if NUY is down, means you can't run lynx)

Here is my "alias" (csh) for running lynx:

/usr/local/nuglops/bin/lynx -show_cursor -vikeys -cache=20 lynx_bookmarks.html

This might not be too "proper", but it makes lynx start out
with my bookmark file, which is usually what I want anyway.
