I thought that I had replied to this earlier, but apparently not.

Lynx should work on your system.  For CWSDPMI and the other files
necessary to get it to work, download the latest version from:
"http://www.rahul.net/dkaufman/lynx2.8rel.3-DOS.zip"; or
"ftp://ftp.rahul.net/pub/dkaufman/lynx2.8rel.3-DOS.zip";

This has a README.DOS file which should explain how to set it up and
some batch files to make it easier, in addition to the binary.

Although minuet is used frequently with bobcat, I don't know if there is
much experience with lynx_386. If it doesn't work, try the setup
described in the above zip file.
