lynx-dev Re: Additional README File for pre-compiled Lynx (W95) (fwd)

[Hataguchi Takeshi]

I also think additional information is needed for Lynx for Windows.
I'm afraid that dial up users and users in the fire wall can't start 
Lynx because STARTFILE is set as a remote file in lynx.cfg.

I wrote a simple program. It generates a batch file, 
which sets the HOME variable and starts Lynx by indicating HELP File 
as a start file.

You can get it from this URL.
    http://www.t3.rim.or.jp/~patakuti/lynx/p-set102.zip

This is a document of it.

p-setup explanation file
------------------------------------------------------------

p-setup is a program for setting up lynx on Windows Environment easily.

Of cource you can set up Lynx without p-setup. If you want to do so,
please refer documents attached Lynx archive.

    p-cfg-jp.txt
        A file is for your setting. This file is used when you select
        Japanese environment.

2 Steps for executing p-setup

  1 Download p-set102.zip and extract it on the same directory as
    Lynx for Windows.

  2 Double click p-setup.exe and select English when you ask 
    "Select Language", (Of cource it's OK selecting Japanese
    if you are Japanese).
