That was a for-example (there are several places in the users's guide
where psuedo-alts are described).

However, the user's guide is where that level of detail is expected to
reside:

> ls -l Lynx_users_guide.html ../lynx.man
-r--r--r--  1 tom tom  33668 Oct 17 18:13 ../lynx.man
-r--r--r--  1 tom tom 167027 Oct 17 18:13 Lynx_users_guide.html

(xterm's manpage isn't that large, and few people read it)
