Lynx bombs here on certain websites, including dejanews - but
I've used the same version of Lynx elsewhere without the problem.

Apparently, using the numerical IP code and appending :80 
might fix this.. but the below script never quite worked..

Still, maybe in future versions, you can check if these two fixes work
before bombing the program (error code "signal 11").

fixweb () {
 $webnode=$1
 $webfile=$2
 # try splitting $1 by third occurance of slash
 $webnum=`nslookup $webnode |grep Address |tail -1 | awk '{print $2}'`
 lynx "http://$webnum:80/$webfile";
}

Thanks in advance
