HTAccess.c sets lynx_edit_mode = TRUE if (HTAnchor_format(anchor) ==
WWW_DIRED), but that piece of code applies only for the case when the
document is "already in memory".  This in turn doesn't happen often
for directories viewed with dired, since there are HTuncache* calls
sprinkled around for the dired case (although you have disabled one
of them).  Normally setting of anchor->format to WWW_DIRED *and*
setting of lynx_edit_mode = TRUE should happen in HTFile.c (now in
print_local_dir()), does that code not get executed for DOS??
