Lynx 2.8.6 - Lynx text browser for Minix 32 bits (2.0.2/2.0.3/2.0.4 and VMD).


Lynx 2.8.6 dev 11
*****************
These is a compiled version of lynx 2.8.6 dev 11. It was tested under 
Minix 2.0.2 32 bit, but should work in 2.0.3/2.0.4 and Minix-VMD.

The code in under development. Please check all the README file before 
attempting any test.

The binary have SSL code compiled into.

Use lynx test.html to jump to tests site where you can try connectivity
and SSL certificates.

Instalation and testing
-----------------------

Move the files from the ./bin directory to /usr/local/bin

Move the files into ./lib directory to /usr/local/lib. The lynx.cfg file 
is searched in this default directory.

Check that you have /usr/local/bin in your PATH variable, using 

# echo $PATH

After try using the command

# lynx test.html

and connect to different sites to test functionality (http/https/nntp/ftp)

If you use modem to connect, start your favourite daemon first (ppp/slip).

See http://lynx.isc.org/ and the online help for more information.

See http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/ for information about SSL for Lynx.
See http://www.openssl.org/ for information about OpenSSL.

*********

If you have a display like "Memory Exhausted" you must chmem the lynx
image with bigger memory. Add increments of 512000 bytes.

If you notice strange issues working with lynx or getting news, also
add increments of 512000 bytes with chmem. 

lynx uses several buffers in memory, mainly for news indexs, and for page
cache and certificates. 

Also it uses /tmp directory for downloading and temporary files, be sure
to have plenty of disk space.

For configuration read the lynx.cfg file, at the end I added the
configuration keys that I use at home.


Requirements
============
lynx uses 3MB memory. 

I recomend to have 8MB minimum of memory.


IMPORTANT
*********

OpenSSL, Zlib and Socket Emulation are in testing for Minix.

Let me know any detail/problem/issue that you identify and how I can 
reproduce it.

Try using -trace that creates the file Lynx.trace at your login directory.
e-mail me to know how to transfer the files (please compress it before!!).
