Travis,
it may be so that I could do this, but I have no desire to do this.
I pay two companies good money to maintain the stability of my services.
the last thing I wish to do is risk damaging that functionality by
tampering with the foundational file of the browser I use countless times
a day.
That is me, I respect those who are programmers at heart, but I am not one
of them.
Besides, Rudy illustrated that I will not gain my single goal by taking
these steps.
Certainly, I might pay a programmer good money to build a current Lynx for
DOS package, allowing me to run Lynx from my desktop, and giving me a
personal
lynx.cft that way.
Otherwise, I prefer leaving things as they are here.
