lynx.zip: Lynx 2.8.6rel.5, added 20080126 and compiled with latest MinGW (not Cygwin's -mno-cygwin) on Windows XP Professional SP2.
I compiled and used:
My binaries don't include IDEA, MDC2, and RC5.
Most problems with my ABNT2 keyboard are fixed in PDCurses 2.6, but:
A simple batch file for Windows NT4, 2000, and XP is available here. It assumes lynx.exe and lynx.cfg are installed in C:\Program Files\Lynx (or whatever Microsoft names Program Files for international versions). There may be problems if a username contains spaces. I had with Frédéric L W Meunier.
If for some reason it doesn't work, you can try lynx -cfg=lynx.cfg
Claudio Santambrogio worked on an installer which, according to his words, comes along with two additional stylesheets I have made, as well as a lynx.bat which should work on NT/2000/XP for any path (even with spaces...). You can download it from here.
lynx.cfg is Lynx's configuration file, which can and should be edited to suit your needs.
You can change the color scheme by downloading and editing any of
or making your own.
Some colors may be unreadable using Command Prompt. Try Full Screen (press Alt+Enter).
To use them run the binary with -lss=FILE.
For DOS ports, go here.
I added Lynx 2.8.6rel.5. The binary from this build will search for lynx.cfg and lynx.lss in his PATH, not some UNIX PATH like /usr/local/share/lynx .
I added Lynx 2.8.6rel.2. Actually, this is the same binary from 2.8.6rel.1, as there were only documentation changes. You can see for yourself the changes from rel.1 to rel.2 in the patch.
I added Lynx 2.8.6rel.1. The old 2.8.5rel.1 (uploaded 20040330 and compiled with bzip2 1.0.2, OpenSSL 0.9.7d, PDCurses 2.6 and zlib 1.2.2.1) is still available here since the new binary hasn't received much testing.
I removed Borland C++Builder and won't install it anymore. I was only using it to make the native Lynx binaries. Based on Doug's e-mail, I used Cygwin's -mno-cygwin, and the resulting binary seems to work fine.
