Hmmm.  So I got the bright idea that I could turn tracing on with ^T,
grab the request out of Lynx.trace, and use that as the startup URL,
or even in a "lynx -source" command.  Of course this doesn't work
because Lynx tries to do a GET instead of a POST on the startup URL.
So, the question becomes, Is there a way to cause lynx to use a POST
rather than a GET on the initial URL.  Does the "-post-data" option
do this?
