[Lynx-dev] Seeking a command line option?

[Karen Lewellen]

Hi folks,
Sigh..this is frustrating.
One fall out of the last shellworld related Lynx incident, turns out our 
admin was trying to upgrade the browser and failed, is that they rolled 
things back  to a much earlier edition.
I have told them as much, their removing even the edition of lynx 
dreamhost provides on their shells, and dreamhost does not care about 
proper lynx configuring.  Can you say google  presenting a captcha when 
one seeks to do a search anyone?
Long story short, now when following many links in emails, I run into the 
"error deflating temporary file message, that  has a fix when in lynx 
proper, but cannot be addressed if following an email link.
What I seek is a command line option that impacts the encoding, I am 
likely not explaining this clearly, which lets me add the command when 
editing the url presented in the email.
Is there such a thing?
Imagine I will  follow this post with the actual error I mean.
Thanks,
Karen
