How do you know it is working fine? I don't know that slipper has been
successfully used with lynx.  The INSTALLATION file suggests dosppp or
the klos driver.  Is this a binary that you compiled, or one that you
got precompiled?  Tips on getting set up in DOS can be found in Bill
Schiavo's blynx386, available at:
"ftp://leb.net/pub/blinux/lynx/blynx386";

or in a package available from me at:
"http://www.rahul.net/dkaufman/lynx2.8pre.2-DOS.zip"; or at
"ftp://ftp.rahul.net/pub/dkaufman/lynx2.8pre.2-DOS.zip";

For a discussion on dialers see the tvdog internet archive:
"ftp://ftp.agate.net/users/01935/internet";

I think most users are using dosppp with the chat dialer that comes with
it.
