LYNX-DEV Wyse terminal difficulties |

I am attempting to install a Lynx terminal browser. I am installing it
on an Intel i586 running Red Hats Linux V4.1. I am wanting to get the
Lynx to respond to a Wyse 50 terminal connection over a telnet
connection.
I have used the TERM=wy50 / export TERM setting of the Linux environment
variable to set the terminal type at login in the .bash_profile file.
I am using ProComs telnet with Wyse50 emulator over a local IP network
for testing.
The Lynx responds quite well in VT100 mode but in when I switch the
terminal type to wy50 the screen attributes are not acting correctly.
The enter does not work, the tab does not work and such. I can see the
ASCII text ok but as for anything else it is unusable.
My questions:
Is the TERM variable the correct way to set the terminal type?
Do I need to do anything to Lynx to inform it that I am using a Wyse50?
I found no references to this in the configuration files.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
