lynx-dev INSTALLATION patch

[Doug Kaufman]

I just noticed that the current INSTALLATION file leaves out information
for the DOS port on patching tcplib which used to be present in the
file. I am not sure when it got removed. This patch puts the information
back and clarifies (for me) the location of nullpkt. It also clarifies
that the PDCurses beta has incorporated some of the patches we made for
the lynx DOS port.

      See "http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month1097/msg00390.html";.  You
      need to compile these before you go any further. If you wish to use the
      beta version of PDCurses 2.3, you need to first apply a patch (available 
at
!     "http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month0997/msg00441.html";).  If you 
have
!     trouble applying the patch, we recommend that you use the "patch" program,
!     ("http://www.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/pat25b.zip";).  To
!     read the Unix man style documentation, use, for example, "less"
      ("http://www.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/lss332b.zip";).
      Compile or place your compiled PDCurses library in lynx2-*/curses, and
      compile or place your compiled WATTCP library in lynx2-*/djgpp/tcplib.

      To test Lynx_386 you must have a packet driver installed.  The simplest
      method is to use a null packet driver that just allows Lynx to start up,
      but doesn't do anything else.  One such executable driver has been posted,
!     uuencoded, to the lynx-dev mailing list: "msg00031.html", "msg00057.html",
!     and "msg00066.html" under "http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month0198/";.
      Start the dummy packet driver with "nullpkt 0x60", and take it out of
      memory with "nullpkt -u".  You can also use slip8250.com.  See the CRYNWR
      package "http://www.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/pktdrvr/pktd11.zip";.
