That problem got solved, the .lynxrc file in my $HOME directory needed to have ownership changed from root to the user account. Once that happened lynx once the o option had been hit behaved normally. On Sun, 21 Jan 2018, address@hidden wrote:

        Quoth Stefan Caunter, 'It looks like a simple User-Agent
redirection they have implemented'

        Yes.  Mine's been 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1;
rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6 lynx' for years out of deference
to many clients; I kept lynx because lynx warns about it.  Fortunately
l_y_n_x satisfies both criteria.  Odd that 'Washington Post' started
caring.
        They've picked on lynx specifically, not other similar
browsers: who'd have thought we mattered enough?

        Thanks.
