lynx-dev [BUGS 2.8.3.dev4] partial, off-by-one

a) I could not understand whether "partial" should work with local
   gzipped files.  As far as I can see, it does not work.

b) In a lot of situations I see the "-more-" prompt written one char
   too early: first dash is on the last column of the last-but-one
   line.  The resulting scrolling messes up the display (AHA, probably
   the opposite: it is written on the last position of the last line,
   but the scrolling moves it to the previous line).

   The simplest way to reproduce it here is to do

   h ^L

   But I also see it after middle-mouse-click===then
   right-mouse-click-outside (to remove the menu), after printing, and
   after downloading.

   Local config: EMX port in a VIO window, gzipped help, latest ncurses.
   Reproduces with TERM=ansi as well.

c) Looking through src/LYStyle.c:parse_style I observe conversion to lowercase:

   first it is done manually char-per-char, then an additional call to
   strtolower() is performed, but to be extra sure, the results are
   compared via strncasecomp().

   BTW, why 'n' in strncasecomp()?  Is not it leading to wrong semantic?
