I'm trying to wire Lynx with the Snownews RSS reader. Both fit together nicely except that "-child", while enabling seamless return from Lynx to the RSS article list, bars file-saving at the same time.
I'm not aware why were the restrictions introduced in the first place, so I hacked a "-child_relaxed" option (see the attached patch) as a makeshift. The patch also takes out seemingly redundant checks that involve both child_lynx and no_disk_save. Note there's one additional location in LYPrint.c that may need attention WRT child restrictions: if (child_lynx == FALSE && no_mail == FALSE && local_host_only == FALSE) It seems logical as long as file-saving is disallowed, but if we choose to do away with implied restrictions for "-child", then the check for child_lynx==FALSE should be lifted.
