I think you can count the TD's comment as a vote against using
"_lynxrc" (since the leading "_" is a non-alphanumeric character).  I
would prefer lynx.rc myself, just because there are already enough
weird filenames out there, and most of the weird ones are temporary
files that programs leave behind by accident that I later go around
cleaning up -- I'm liable to delete a file starting with "_" by
accident!  :-}  I also dislike files without extensions.
