LYNX-DEV -term=TERM option, and URL_DOMAIN_PREFIXES & _SUFFIXES don't work on VMS

[Jim Winkle]

Two things don't work for me with the OpenVMS Lynx client,
version 2.7.1 (base version). Can anybody shed some light on
these?

1)   The "-term=TERM" option doesn't work. Instead, Lynx queries
     my terminal and uses that. I've tried:
       $ lynx -term=VT100
       $ lynx -term=vt100
       $ lynx "-term=VT100"
       $ lynx "-term=vt100"
     but everytime it comes back with "Terminal = vt300_series".

2)   In LYNX.CFG, URL_DOMAIN_PREFIXES and URL_DOMAIN_SUFFIXES
     don't work. I have them set to:

       URL_DOMAIN_PREFIXES:www.
       URL_DOMAIN_SUFFIXES:.com,.edu,.net,.org

     but yet when I G(oto a URL, Lynx doesn't appear to use
     these. For example, if I try to Goto "cbs" to find out what
     time slot _Chicago Hope_ is in now, I get "Badly formed
     address cbs".

I'm running on OpenVMS 5.5-2 using UCX 3.3 ECO1, compiled under
DECC 5.5 on a VAXstation 4000/90A.

Thanks!

P.S. I looked through the archives and couldn't find anything about 
     these.
