lynx-cur for Debian
----------------------

Developemnet version of lynx with NLS support.

* /usr/bin/lynx is defined through alternatives and real binary is 
/usr/bin/lynx.cur and /usr/bin/lynx will call /usr/bin/lynx.cur by default.

We recommend strongly to install lynx-cur-wrapper if you are a novice user 
of lynx, especially you are not iso-8859-1 user.  But the current maintainer
does not know about this so please let me know any deficiency you find.

* In /etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg, we set

EXTERNAL:ftp:w3m %s:TRUE
EXTERNAL:file:w3m %s:TRUE
EXTERNAL:http:w3m %s:TRUE
EXTERNAL:http:wget %s:TRUE
EXTERNAL:http:wget -r %s:TRUE
EXTERNAL:ftp:netscape %s:TRUE
EXTERNAL:file:netscape %s:TRUE
EXTERNAL:http:netscape %s:TRUE

which gives a popup menu when you press '.' or ',' for the current link 
or page respectively,

SUFFIX:.deb:application/octet-stream
SUFFIX:.tgz:application/octet-stream

and

INCLUDE:~/.lynx/colors:COLOR
INCLUDE:~/.lynx/keymap:KEYMAP
INCLUDE:~/.lynx/viewers:VIEWER
INCLUDE:~/.lynx/external:EXTERNAL

the latter will enable you to alter options privately by the files
~/.lynx/colors etc.

* In /etc/lynx-cur/local.cfg, you may check the settings of

STARTFILE:, NNTPSERVER:

but STARTFILE: will be set appropriately if you install correctly.

* In /etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg, you might want to modify the settings of

LOCAL_DOMAIN:, SAVE_SPACE:

* If you use always option "-use_mouse" then it may be useful to set
alias lynx 'lynx -use_mouse'
in appropriate file, for example .bashrc or .tcshrc

* lynx will be in color mode but if this causes any troubles do:

1) In Lynx Options Menu, set option "show color" as "NEVER"
then the default is changed to monochrome.

2) If you do not want to change default setting, then try
lynx -nocolor

ncursesw caused a problem with 2.8.6dev.6 patch so --with-screen=ncursesw
to --with-screen=ncurses, and changed Build-Depends libncursesw5-dev to
libncurses5-dev
