(note to the people doing the integration, don't bother - i've just 
completely rewritten it and i'm unlikely to support or modify the old
version any longer.  the new version is also completely different, 
relying on a screen handling library i wrote that can sit on any 
low-level handling library like ncurses, slang etc)

can you give me an example page where these sort of things happen?
(the attributes remaining after exiting lynx has never happened to me
so that's why it's not been debugged)
