Enter the name of your options file. The default name is
<code>lynxopt</code>, just in case my cgi scripts don't work
and screw up you lynxrc. If you are brave, enter the name
of your real lynxrc.<p>
I don't know if the full path name is required or not. I can't
get my cgi perl scripts to read $HOME. Yes, I have set lynx.cfg
to pass the HOME variable. Somebody give me a hint?<p>
This is the first time I have programmed in perl and also the first
time I did cgi scripts, so no guarantees! Also due to my inexperience
the perl codes are probably not very efficient. Lastly, because of
this lack of efficiency I cannot get the "character_set=" option to remember
its previous setting. Does anyone have a better perl switch-block
algorithm? Read cgi1.pl and you will see what I mean. Right now it
will reset to ISO Latin 1 everytime you run it.<p>
<form method="post" action="lynxcgi:cgi1.pl">
<textarea name="lynxrc" rows=1 cols=40>lynxopt</textarea><p>
Then <input value="start" type="submit"> to set your Lynx options.<p>
Oops, entered the wrong information. <input value="Clear it" type="reset">
and start again.
</form>
