HTTPS support is not shipped with lynx due to various international laws
impacting the topic of encryption software and software patents. However,
Would it be worthwhile for us to add a paragraph regarding https (and perhaps
javascript/java, frames/tables, and binary distributions) to the README
since there are so frequently questions about these topics?
