Okay folk.  You have wondered how you could contribute to lynx, but you
are 'source shy' and don't think you are up to hacking the code.

Here's a quickie project that would be very useful.

Add a section to the man page that lists the environment variables
that can be used to configure lynx, alone with a very short description
of how to use it.  Once you contribute the patch, the rest of folk
will help 'correct' or at least extend the comments to make them more
correct.

Use a grep for getenv (and putenv?) to find all the references.  Be
sure to mention when (if) lynx creates any variables itself.


For bonus points, add parallel comments to the HTML help pages or even
better create a new page for the variables and appropriate links to it.
