lynx-dev [PATCH] minor doc update


From: pg
Subject: lynx-dev [PATCH] minor doc update
Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2000 22:29:16 -0600 (MDT)

Hello, Lyncei,

One of the ".po" files is zipped as type binary rather than ASCII,
so I have trouble unzipping it on OS/390 with the "-a" option.
"-aa" works better since it forces text conversion regardless of the
type of the archived file.  I don't know how or if this applies to
DOS, so reviewers' choice on the INSTALLATION half of the attached
patch.

Ideally, this should be covered at the supplier end by forcing all
files to be archived as text, but I don't know whether this is
possible.
