Am I misunderstanding what LYNX_CFG_FILE is? I don't understand why you
say it need be "complete". If I do not modify the code to point to the
complete distribution lynx.cfg on my http server, when I go to the `='Info
page, then [2]compile time settings, then [1]your lynx.cfg, then
distribution's [1]lynx.cfg, I display a file that is 662/83884th the
size of the distribution one. This happens because I switch a minimal
lynx.cfg for the distribution one before running ./configure.

I beg that you do not recommend putting it in lynx_help. Please _copy_ it
into lynx_doc/samples, ONLY when "make install-doc" is done.

Actually, to do what has been on the to-do list for quite some time, namely
being able to specify a URL to reach the help files that is different from
the locally installed help file set, may require some coding.
