I want to view JavaScript files; I don't think this would help for that,
as JS doesn't have a specific character set.

I have to download the JS file, and then open it locally. It would really
be helpful if Lynx would offer to display the raw contents as well as to
download. Perhaps we could have a config setting like "Viewable MIME types"?
I assume Lynx already has such a list internally, so externalizing it ought
to be fairly simple.


thank you,
