Travis,
As expressed, this question is not for me, with your answers far
afield from the simple information sought.
on the lynx.browser.org page mac os x is listed as an option, with my
recalling a list member getting help using that edition for site
testing.
However, that does not tell me what the current lynx edition is for
mac, which is the question I was asked.
best,
Karen

Been a while since I had a working mac, but last time I did,
compiling one from source was trivial, and caused no issues. (this is
almost always how I handle opensource software), especially since on
mac, the macports they have that is supposed to make things easier
trashed my machine once, so I will never use that particular cludge
again. On the other hand, the lynx download page does have various
versions, though I don't know if there's one there for mac or not.
As far as putting it into a section on the finder menus, that's easy
enough (assuming it hasn't changed), just use root access to copy the
program to the folder in question, and problem solved. On the other
hand, since it's a terminal program, you may need to create a script
to launch it with the particular environment you want, as I'm not
sure if it picks up the terminal defaults when being launched from
finder.
Probably doesn't answer the question, but it may give enough for the
original poster to figure out what's necessary.

Hi folks,
A question from the voiceover list to which I belong.
I recall that there is a lynx compile for mac os X but am unsure of
how
updated. Also can lynx be say added to the browser applications
folder,
or must it be run in terminal?
Thanks,
Karen
