Re: [Lynx-dev] Invoking a lynx script

[Graham Lawrence]

Thank you for the info.  My fall-back option, a bash script using xdotool, will do the job.  Both lynx and vim accept "keystroke" input from xdotool.

The only way I know to invoke a lynx script involves
lynx -cmd_log=/path/to/script "url"

Is there a way to invoke a lynx script from within the running lynx, so that
I could immediately manipulate the text of the page I'm currently viewing?

no - but it would be something relatively easy to add.
(making it so that scripts could be nested would be more complicated).
