By analogy, on Solaris 2.8 with Lynx 2.8.6dev.17, I created a
cgi-bin script which did

    Content-type: text/x-streaming

then mostly a

    od -x /dev/random

I added to lynx.cfg

    VIEWER:text/x-streaming:/bin/less

When I connect to my cgi-bin script, all I get is a progress
odometer.  I stopped Lynx when it reached 25 Mb.  What am I
doing wrong?

By contrast,  when I do:

    lynx -source same.script.cgi | /bin/less

it pages with less, as I'd expect.

Does it make a difference to specify SUFFIX?
