Here is my lynx printing "screen":

     
   [1]Save to a local file
   [2]Mail the file
   [3]Print to the screen
   [4]Specify your own print command
   [5]Append to a local file
   [6]Print to your local computer using "lpansi" ANSI print sequence
   [7]Print to your local computer using "ansilpr" ANSI print sequence
   [8]Print to your local computer using "vtprint" vt100 print sequence
   [9]Zmodem download to your local computer using "sz" command
   [10]Ymodem download to your local computer using "sb" command
   [11]Xmodem download to your local computer using "sx" command
   [12]Kermit download to your local computer using "kermit" command
   [13]Print to the screen using "more" file viewer
   [14]Print to the screen using "less" file viewer
   [15]Print to the screen using "most" file viewer
     

 Please give an actual EXAMPLe of doing your
definition, totally spoon-fed, so we can
see exactly how to do it.

Thanks!
