Re: LYNX-DEV editing of INSTALLATION: 386DOS

[Leonid Pauzner]

Henry,

while writing about unpacking the source we forgot one thing:
unpacked texts have LF instead of dos CRLF
and there may be a problem in reading/editing such files
with usual DOS editors, if such editors are not a UNIX port.
This is especially important then you need to edit userdefs.h and lynx.cfg
So, we need something like this:

Unpack the sources code using DOS program unzip386 (or unzip) with -a switch
to convert unix LF to dos CRLF to make texts more readable under DOS.
The program usually distributed with DJGPP and other software,
or you can get it directly from "http://www.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/MSDOS/";

and later on, without "No switch is required".


Leonid.
